Windows Programs

Is there an application that allows you to use Linux but run windows programs?
I'm using Ubuntu Linux and I wanted to know if there was an application that allows you to use windows programs.
Hello.
There are a few such programs, with a few of them costing money. WINE, Cedaga, Crossover, and VMware.
One of the most used, and free ones is WINE:

Although Wine Is Not an Emulator, it does a great job of allowing many Microsoft programs to install and run under Linux. To install (Under Ubuntu):
sudo apt-get install wine
Another choice is VMware. It is a virtualization software that enables you to use many other operating systems inside of one computer operating system, by creating a virtual computer disk image.
http://www.vmware.com/
The drawback to VMware is that you will need a windows installation CD or disk image to create/install the operating system into VMware.
CrossOver Linux :http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxlinux/ is another program that claims to be able to run Windows applications effortlessly. It does cost a bit more money, but states it is able to play many of the latest windows games under Linux
Hope this helps.
