Title: condor with a VM in Windows

Hi,

I have been googling around quite a bit and found many alternative ways of running condor on a linux virtual machine to run inside a windows box. I am interested in applying it to my organization where most personal PC’s use windows.

I would like to ask anyone knowledgeable on this about what the best option is. I am concerned about the memory (disk and RAM) requirements of solutions like vmware with a linux distro inside. I have seen linux distributions like embedded-dsl which come as a quemu VM for windows, but have not seen anyone that has effectively run condor on it.

Thanks in advance.
