KQEmu Released under GPL

This is great news. I do remember him wanting a company to sponsor him before releasing it under the GPL, so did that finally happen?

There's a digg story here too that links to a ubuntu tutorial ;): http://digg.com/linux_unix/Windows_XP_apps_on_your_Ubuntu_desktop_now_with_Co herence

Heh... I just think it was a result of the open-sourcing of Virtualbox. I wonder what VMware will do. Nothing probably - they have a business to maintain (and their products are nice).
