For a while I ran Windows 2000 in Virtualbox under Linux with 1GB of memory. The performance seemed fine, but I found I just never used it. I mostly wanted it for one program (Movie Magic Screenwriter) and my need for that program waned. Now I just use software "built" for native Linux (Trelby). I also used DOS programs (like WordStar 7 and dBASE 5) which I now use in DOSBox under Linux.
