VMWare: Run Windows and Linux simultaneously

If you switch to Linux and get rid of Windows, your computer will run without crashing and will be immune to all the problems that plague Windows. But let's be real. You'll have another set of problems to deal with. You won't be able to run any of your Windows software. You won't be able to run Microsoft Money or Quicken. You won't be able to run Microsoft Word or Excel, or any of the thousands of other good Windows programs. You'll have a lot of good Linux software to choose from, but sometimes there is no substitute for the stuff you're used to.
