The Null Device

It's official: Microsoft is porting its applications to Linux, with the help of an Israeli firm named Mainsoft. The article doesn't say which applications are being ported, though IE would be most welcome. The office suite is another likely candidate, as it would enable Microsoft to cut off demand for other Linux office suites (such as StarOffice), whilst providing a MS compatible product, though one that's clearly not as good as running it on Windows.
