The other thing is I could sell the decision makers at my company on developing for Linux, if I had access to a Windows forms development environment. At the moment I am completely stymied, as they won't even consider the idea of cross platform apps that require GTK being installed on Windows. And yes being able to move preexisting MS Windows Win Forms .NET Apps to Linux could be done quite easily if the WinForms environment was available.
