I'm about to try it under Windows 2000 - I couldn't get it to run under Windows 98 because VMWare wouldn't let me change the guest OS to displaying in 256-colour mode (needs graphics drivers, virtual machines don't *have* graphics cards therefore no drivers...pretty infuriating but whatever). I managed to get hold of an ISO of the Gold Edition (I really, really, really wanted Deeper Dungeons and the GoG.com version apparently doesn't support it .)
I have heard of some people being able to coax it into running under Linux in a virtual machine - has anyone else had any success with this or any other guest OS?
I'm using VMWare Workstation 1.7 without VMWare tools.
