Perhaps the same fate with Microsoft Virtual PC ?? Among its best known websites are http://microsoft-virtual-pc.software.informer.com/ and the link off of this, http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/

OTOH, Canonical's Windows Ubuntu Installer (Wubi) might be around for awhile. Its website is https://launchpad.net/wubi

No, its website is http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/ and it's alive and apparently well.

Now a day they have VMWare and Hyper-V for Windows (but I prefer the other way around, linux as host and Windows on top). KDEWin is a very good candidate and active, article should had been about this: http://windows.kde.org
