Hi everyone,
I'd need a windows ce emulator for linux, seems like I can't find any. There's one on microsoft's site but it's only for windows.
Did anyone try to run vmware/windows/pocket pc emulator? How is the performance?

I've used VMWare and it fit my needs perfectly, although I have never used any other software, so I can'y really compare it to anything else.
