   It is possible to run *almost all* Ubuntu applications in Windows by   
   passing it through an excellent piece of software called Colinux.   
      
   I have tried an adopted "andLinux" this is a minimalistic Linux based on    
   Xubuntu and running within and using the resources from Windows.   
      
   Only the hardware-related apps of Linux may not run, but for this you    
   can use Windows.   
      
   It installs in minutes and you don't even need a reboot. You can run    
   both application types together and even cut and paste between them.   
      
   If you like this idea,: take a look there:
