And if your processor doesn't support Xen, look at qemu.  Today, most
machines are powerful enough to run a responsive virtual machine so
that multibooting is really only necessary if you need to squeeze
every last ounce out of the system (e.g., gaming) or you have some
special hardware that the vm won't support.

A recent edition of Linux Journal was devoted to emulation.
