I have Linux Mint Cinnamon on my computer now can i install Virtual Box and see Windows 7 and still keep my Linux Mint on my computer. I read some about this, my understanding you can use Windows for like 90 days if so how do i do this?
Thank,s Chuck
 
I've setup virtual PC's on my Windows PC, so can't see why you can't do the same under Linux.
as long as the VM software is Linux compatible, you should be good to go.
then in that VM software you create a virtual PC and install the OS you want.
so you setup access to the physical PC's DVD or USB drive and install the virtual OS accordingly.
 
Used Virtualbox and vmware to run Linux from a Windows host but never the other way round. You could always dual boot as another alternative?????

This link lists downloads, but not for Mint, although it lists one for "all distributions"
