 	The software I have, within my ability to use, runs under 
XP but not linux. No emulator I've tried -- wine and 
CXO,neither one recently; but I tried *hard* with CXO a while 
back -- has succeeded in letting my machine talk to any GPS 
while running linux.

 	I could launch, and even run, two or three suites; but I 
couldn't make them connect.

 	Iiuc, Xen is able to let me run XP -- with at least some 
apps -- under linux...
