You can create a Linux-like environment running as an application on a Windows system by installing
Cygwin. You can set up telnet access, use most Linux commands, etc.
Cygwin: don't leave /home without it.

But it ain't the same as a virtual machine, by any stretch of the imagination.

Heh, I'm not a huge fan of Cygwin, but I have to admit - that's pretty funny.
