If
you like your current (non-linux) desktop operating system, but would
like an easy way to access a Linux desktop or run your favorite open
source software, you may want to consider running Linux as a VM inside
another operating system. There are a number of ways to do this, but one
simple one would be to download and install a Virtual Server
application, and then install your Linux distribution under that host
software. This topic is covered in the more advanced tutorials on this
website… I think that I should pause here and say that everything that
you can do with your “other” operating system, you can do with Linux.
That means word processing, databases, spreadsheets, Internet browsers,
e-mail, photo touch-ups, MP3, CD Players, cameras and then there are a
lot of things that Linux has to offer on top of all that that other
operating systems don't.
