The goal of the Plex86 project is to create an extensible open source
PC virtualization software program which will allow PC and workstation users to run multiple operating systems concurrently on the same machine. Plex86 will run as much of the operating system and application software natively as possible, the rest being emulated by the PC virtualization monitor. A highly visible and often requested use, would be to allow for Windows software to be run inside of GNU/Linux or other UNIX like operating system. This gives users a migration path towards UNIX, allowing them to run legacy software until native ports or alternatives are available. It also provides a transitionary step for software vendors who plan to port their product to UNIX, but have not yet done so. Users could buy the Windows version product and run it at near native speeds on UNIX, using Plex86, until a UNIX native version is ready.
