Install Linux, rather FreeBSD (this being, well, a FreeBSD mailing
list), on a machine separate from the Windows one. Connect the two
via a switch. Run Humming Bird Exceed, VNC, or some such software
-- which will show the "desktop" of your newly acquired FreeBSD
machine running X11 -- on your Windows machine. And you have both
Windows & FreeBSD graphical interfaces available to you.
Do not forget to guard your internal network from the rest of the
Internet via a firewall or by virtue of being not connected to the
Internet.
