Introducing "Cooperative Linux" - Linux for Windows, No Less (LinuxWorld)

LinuxWorld introduces CoLinux. "21 year-old Dan Aloni, a graduate of an IDF [Israel Defence Force] computer unit, has developed a Linux application - called Cooperative Linux ("CoLinux" for short) - that is a port of the Linux kernel that allows it to run cooperatively alongside another operating system on a single machine. For instance, it allows one to freely run Linux on Windows without using a commercial PC virtualization software such as VMware, in a way which is much more optimal than using any general purpose PC virtualization software."
