FWIW, I booted linux and tried out the example on this page: http://mono-project.com/Mono_Basics It compiled and ran just fun under Linux. I then copied the resulting .exe file to my Windows partition, rebooted into Windows, opened a terminal, and tried running the program as .\hello.exe. Again, it ran just fine, this time under Windows. Granted, this is a very simple test, but it passed nonetheless. > An interesting thing to note is that some open source / Linux fanatics > HATE mono and regard it as a Microsoft "trojan horse."
