Office XP on Unix

[Brian Marshall]

I need to know is it possible to run Office XP on a Unix
workstation running Unix AIX ver 5.2. Does Microsoft have
any emulation software that allows Unix systems to run
Windows Applications? Thanks.

I'd be very surprised if MS had anything like that! However, I'm not really
familiar with AIX these days but there are several Linux programs allowing
you to emulate Windows like Lindows and Wine. They seem to be emulations
close enough to require legal MS CDs to install. I can't offer much advice
but those are worth looking into.
