Linux emulation in windows

Are there any free apps to emulate linux in windows (yes definately this way round). I want to run rosegarden on my Windows XP laptop, and I therefore need some emulation. Or is it possible to recompile under windows from linux source? Cheers, Alan

You could look into something like Cygwin.
