I use Dos Box for DOS games (I've had good success with them) and Windows XP 32-bit for things which detect 64-bit and refuse to run.

Either use Virtual Box (great for Linux) or Virtual PC 2007.

How it looks when I've dug it out from under most of the windows...

Yup, that is Visual Studio running on XP Pro x86 in a VM on gentoo x86_64 :D
Stupid college, not letting me use C for the programming parts of the course. :(
