If 'wine' dont do it for you - ie. 'windows' sub-system on *nix - then check out 'reactos' at: http://www.reactos.org - i've been playing with it in a vm (there's a vm image for download - only about 30MB) and looks good so far.
"ReactOS(R) is a free, modern operating system based on the design of Windows(R) XP/2003. Written completely from scratch, it aims to follow the Windows(R) architecture designed by Microsoft from the hardware level right through to the application level. This is not a Linux based system, and shares none of the unix architecture. "
BTW - what are the apps that only work on xp, that lock guys into that system, and don't run under wine?
A poll, perhaps?
Here's my list: 1. QuickBooks 2. AutoCAD 3. Nokia PC Suite 4. Google Chrome
Remember, coding is 'labour' - so have a rest kesho!

With the talks of Microsoft halting official support for Windows XP, don't you think they should release XP code to the open source community?
First, that will ensure that the legend that XP was lives on.
Secondly, am willing to bet such an OS will knock off all other open source OSes off the charts. Microsoft have the No. 1 open source OS!
You have a BIG dream!
