As a result of expanding sideways in my business I'm going to need to 
run windows apps on a regular basis.  I've used wine occassionally but 
find that it doesn't run everything - I commonly get problems.  I 
downloaded the free vmware player though haven't run it yet.  However 
the docs seem to indicate that the free player won't let me actually 
open up a seperate window and run windows apps.  Is this correct?

If so, what should I be running so that I can seamlessly run windows 
apps on my linux machine?  Would I just be better off with a seperate 
PC?  I've got a dual boot right now but rebooting all the time is a bit 
of a pain.
