Run Linux apps in Windows with andLinux

Running a full functional Linux System without an usual desktop because you already have one that is Microsoft Windows. But you will have two start menu which original one is Microsoft Windows(at left corner) and another one is Linux Start menu in the system tray next to the clock. Linux applications and Windows applications can be used simultaneously and you can cut and paste text between them.
Besides that, you also will not get the applications which come from Linux Original Distribution, printer drivers and other hardware drivers. It is recommended to use andLinux only on single-user-PCs or in a trustworthy environment because the communication with the X-Server and the launcher is not secured, i.e., every user who can login to Windows can access andLinux.
Requirement:
- OS: Windows 2000 / XP / 2003 / Vista [32-bit only]
- Memory: at least 128 MB (192 MB or more is recommended)
- Hard disk space: 2.5 GB (XFCE version) / 4.5 GB (KDE version)
Note that you need an NTFS file system (which is default since Windows 2000) because you can’t create files larger than 2 GB on FAT(32) file systems! - A good internet connection (to be able to install further applications)
- Some basic Linux skills to proceed once andLinux is installed
