It should work fine desga2, K-meleon in Virtualbox inside of linux. One problem though is that the arrangement would require that one own a license for windows--many people do have one or more licenses laying around these days though. K-Meleon would run with no problems in virtualbox. K-Meleon should run faster with less overhead in wine however. If someone is already running wine it would be a natural to run k-meleon also. Running in virtualbox, the native linux browsers would certainly outperform k-meleon. Running in wine k-meleon runs about equal with the native browsers. But for some people virtualbox might be just the thing. It would be great if someone could do a comparison on the same machine, KM in virtualbox vs. KM in wine.
