Thanks for all your suggestions everyone.
I've played with VMware, and agree it is a brilliant piece of kit. Has anyone here looked at coLinux? http://www.colinux.org/ I just got it the other day, but haven't got it working yet.
Played with dual-booting but I just tend to stay on my current fave rather than keep switching.
To be honest I just need to get around to making the commitment to switch to a linux desktop.
Si.

It's a pity that VMware Workstation costs money, I use it all the time but the purchase cost may be a bit hard to swallow for home or hobby use.
It is (in 90% of cases) a far better option than multibooting.
