Windows is a must whether you think Wine is a solution or not. It doesn't solve everything.
I have no idea what I'd do if I didn't have my security vunerabilities and software-only-for-windows on my linux box ;(.

Chances are, she knows how to use loadlin to access the linux kernel and re-run a LILO configuration with Windows in mind. And if she doesn't, Faw just learnt how to get rid of that "rule of thumb" limitation.
