I slapped a laptop together for my son and dropped Gutsy on it. He got
all exicet and ran and got a CD game he wanted to play. He stuck it in
and it just ran. It was a winders game! Then the security ramifications
hit: if a user can just install windows software, then there is enough
of a wine framework to support virus propagation.

ARGH!
