This isn't the list for that, unfortunately.   That should be obvious 
from the "@redhat.com" at the end of it :)

One solution is to look at virtualizing all of your Windows 
installations on top of Linux, using Cobbler with "cobbler image add" 
and koan to deploy Windows ISOs prepared with SysPrep on top of Linux 
KVM hosts.
