    This looks very cool - I wonder what the system requirements are besides accelerated video? Anybody using this yet that would like to chime in on it?

    As much as some people like to bad-mouth eye-candy, it's one of the reasons I've been able to swtich so many people from Windows. First you 'Wow' them with the eye-candy and then you tell them about the stability and lack of viruses.. 9/10 times the next question is 'why don't more people use it.' Eventually they feel like they know a secret and buy a mac. Likewise, this would be a nice 'wow' for people looking to introduce the layman to gnu/linux.
