&gt; 
&gt; The subject line really says it all...wow!  After compiling the cvs
&gt; version and installing the accelerator module, things have worked
&gt; brilliantly.  So far, I've installed Windows XP and FreeBSD.  Both
&gt; installs went more or less flawlessly...very nice.
&gt; 
&gt; Performance is very good with the accelerator module...very, very 
&gt; usable. It's just a tad slower than Win4Lin 5, although likely this 
&gt; is due to WinXP vs. Win98 more than anything else.  It's definitely 
&gt; on par with VMWare/WinXP.
&gt; 
&gt; I'd recommend you give it a shot if you're interested in having a free
&gt; alternative to VMWare.
&gt; 
&gt; As a side note, the new Win4Lin Pro product that adds Windows XP 
&gt; support is actually built on top of Qemu.
&gt; 
&gt; Have fun. Let me know if you have any questions.

I just installed this and want to give it a whirl.  Does it work like 
VMWare in that I can install Win2000 virtually and run from this 
machine?  If so, just a pointer or two on starting this up.

Thanks.
