Here's a clever Windows utility that allows Linux to run natively under Windows. I've used it to run Linux servers, X apps, and to compile stuff. Your entire Linux file system resides in an ordinary Windows file.

virtual unix for windows

Is VMware one such software?
 

run unix and xp together

Yes, VMware is a popular product that can host multiple operating systems including Linux.
VMware is a commercial product. coLinux is free and open-source.

Virtual PC (now Microsoft) is another one. I think it's free:

All these methods have some limitations compared to booting your computer directly into Linux.

If you can connect to a server which has installed Linux/Unix OS, then you can also practice it. It is more convenience. HaHa.

xp run unix

I think you can use a "live" distribution of Linux that can boot from CD, or use a virtual environment like vmware or better VirtualBox (hxxp://www.virtualbox.org/) that is free but you must install the Unix os in this environment or you must use a image than you can freely found on Internet.

No, cygwin is just a poor "emulator"... nothing more.
