Total marketting, all hype, no science, all speculation. They are offering a CTO position? If the company was real, and stable the CTO guy would be the guy who was making the compatability solution a real one. I was really hoping that this would work out and provide windows aps on linux. So I was even spitting the hype about it. At worse case, I figured it was a case of stolen source, afterall windows xp source got leaked and a few international pirates out there would rip it, then re-code the basics, then claim it was original to them. Same code different wording :). but no, and that is sad. Basically these numnuts just wasted alot of ppl's time. Fahqers. This has got to be the biggest load of crap ever!
