Try something called cygwin. It''s free, gives you a unix-like command shell, among other things.

There''s also Windows Services for Unix (SFU). I believe it comes with the ability to use bash.

You can also try coLinux, that is a heavily modified 2.4 linux kernel that runs on top of windows. On it''s website there are debian, fedora and gentoo linux ready to roll...
