Run Windows apps in Linux in their own windows!

Virtualbox is a Linux app that lets you run Windows applications in their own windows under almost any version of Linux (they’re using Gutsy Gibbon). The full instructions are over at Lifehacker and it only works with XP, but that shouldn’t stop you from running notepad.

I use Virtualbox quite a bit, mostly for testing different Linux distros. Virtualbox is very nice in that aspect; I can install and play around with different distros without having to deal with partitioning my hard drive.
