Only one thing is holding me back from moving to Ubuntu - and that is
that I want to keep using my email client, Turnpike.
I've never found anything better in the twelve years I've been using
Turnpike
and it won't run under WINE because it's a Windows namespace shell
extension - i.e. an extension of Windows Explorer.
Would it be possible to run a fairly stripped down XP in a virtual
machine?
Which would be the best virtualisation software for that?
Would I still need all the security software for XP when it is running
within the virtual machine?
(Anti-virus, anti-trojan, etc.)
