I had time to kill tonight waiting for a movie, and I went into the
local MicroCenter.  I saw a shrinkwrap box called Linux for Windows.
It was published by MacMillan and created by Mandrake.  It appeared to
be similar to Demo Linux -- a bootable CD-ROM.  But this one cost
money.

As Larry Wall once said:

        You've got to understand [ActiveState's] market has always
        been the Windows space, where you're actually doing people a
        favor by charging them money for things, because that's the
        only way to keep from confusing them.
