You try Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Fedora Core 6, and a million and ten other linuxes. It isn't always the easiest thing to get games working, but it works sometimes. Or you can install a Windows XP and use it for the 30days without activating it till you get your Vista......Or just wait :)

Yeah like Tigger says..."aquire" an XP disc. Its not too hard.

I beleive its a game thats running off a linux that you don't need to install. Basically everything just kind of runs of the CD and it lets you play Wolfenstien
