I am still waiting for someone to come up with "LINE" and "MINE"...kind of like WINE, but for running Linux and Mac apps on Windows.

Well they have LINE, it just hasn't been updated in a couple of years and won't work with 64-bit yet. I wish that it would be updated... http://www.colinux.org/

Way back in the day, I ran Portable Ubuntu Remix on XP, as my first Linux experience. That had some weird clipboard issues that drove me nuts. I had mouser's Clipboard Help & Spell installed, too, and the beep when something was copied to the clipboard kept going off for seemingly no reason, about ever 20 seconds, whenever PUR was running, and I could never copy anything to the clipboard long enough to get it pasted to anywhere else, not from Windows or Ubuntu apps. That clipboard insanity was what drove me to using Wubi.

A real shame that it was never ported to 64-bit. I had pretty good experiences with Portable Ubuntu Remix. But as colinux is only capable of running 32-bit editions of Linux and (as far as I know) Ubuntu doesn't bring out 32-bit versions of their OS anymore. Although migrating it from the 2008 version of Ubuntu till the most current one would be a chore, I would give that a go.

It's written in Rust, you can install and compile on Windows (or even compile it under WSL - Windows Subsystem for Linux) ... try the attached.
