Run Linux Apps In Windows
If your a Linux geek but are stuck using Windows for your day to day job this might just be the perfect compromise.
While you can run Linux within Windows using a number of virtualization products, andLinux takes it one step further and installs Linux on top of Windows, allowing the two to exist with one and other. Essentially allowing you to run Windows and Linux apps at the same time.
andLinux comes in two flavours; One comes with a full KDE system and the other with an XFCE based system.
Since andLinux installs a full operating system, you’ll need to make sure you’ve got quite a bit of free space on your hard drive. The KDE version eats up more than 4GB of space while the XFCE version takes about 2GB
