Hi,
If you are satisfied with Fedora the you can use its
LIVE CD to work without even installing on the system
More info????

Dear Friend,
Ru satisfied with the answers or not? Using all these virtual machines ur system will get slow, unless u have a large RAM for ur system. Better use it as a dual booting system. then it will be ok. otherwise increase ur RAM.
regards,
raghunath chouta

With regards to the RAM situation, normal windows distributions (Win XP, Vista,..) cannot use more than 2.5-3GB worth of RAM. On the other hand any linux distro will correctly handle all of the available system RAM.
As such I would recommend running windows in linux rather than the other way round.
Cheers
Slayer

Yes, VMware is a good choise.
But actually I'm facing some difficulties to switch from windows to VMware. Is there a solution to share the files between windows and Linux ?

If you doesn't need the linux desktop but if you want to run linux programs under windwos, you can use andlinux.
http://www.andlinux.org/
It has the adavantage that it doen't need so much resorches as a virtualmachine (vmware or qemu) do.
