Netraverse can be found at the URL www.netraverse.com. The lead products of Netraverse are Win4Lin and Win4Lin Terminal Server. These are products designed to bridge Windows users over to Linux in as pain-free, quick and cost-effective way as possible. Win4Lin technology integrates a copy of Windows into Linux as a Linux process and Win4Lin resides in the Linux file system. Unlike VMware, it is really part of Linux. Unlike WINE, it runs hundreds of thousands of apps as "gold" right out of the box with no re-write, support or maintenance involved.
