It was a link off of yours. There are some bugs as would be expected, but a lot of the applications apparently run well.

What’s intriguing to me is how this opens Windows users to new (to them) and free applications that directly compete with the likes of Microsoft.

I run Ubuntu Feisty Fawn on a small extended partition, in addition to XP. I use Ubuntu for my browsing because it loads so fast, and XP for those apps, like Quicken, I need for personal management purposes.

Yeah, it is pretty interesting. Microsoft’s own operating systems become battlefields now, more than ever before.
