Haha, and I just got a Blue Screen of Death! Oh how I don't miss those!

I feel somewhat dirty using it, when I got to the Firefox download page
it detects that I'm using windows!

I think that as far as windows compatibility goes, wine is still the
best. And they have just released version 1.0 (http://www.winehq.org/)
so I imagine that will be in Intrepid. 

In any case, the version in Hardy is pretty stable, and runs WoW!
