ACTUALLY better yet!!!

--Let's do this (if we had the time!)

set up a linux box that starts up with a MONO version of MSoft's Powershell...
-we'll call this the new DOS... this is the native state of the computer - no gui (or at least no content on the screen) - we do have a gui though just nothing rendered cause we haven't HKStartUI.software.mono.run. Anyway we do that... and the XML parser tells the WPF to load the Contents of HKstartUI - whalla , we have our Kiosk computer up and running , with everything from speech rec to touchscreen control. so as you can tell the future will be interesting when it comes to computing - security permissions will not need be set on things like file structures but instead on XML.net elements ,eg. don't want anyone to be able to draw new Forms on the screen - set the permission on System.Forms to no-more instances than now. -and whalla you can browse the internet and all the XAML elements it has to offer withou worrying about it starting up a million pop-up windows. better yet, you won't need special pop-up blocker software in the first place, you could just set the Sytem.Forms permission to - allow Form eleements from XAML downloads - 1 thread at a time.

anyway - I would really love to see a linux distro called 'The MonoBox' - forget kde and gnome - just throw them out the door. Get an interface started up that is totally dependent on the mono framework, with some sort of super C# compiler and a really open programmong network - one where each personal computer would show off to the world what kind of Framwork components it has to offer (new ones to be downloadable in binary or source code from the users own CVS - better yet make the whole .net framework binary totaly open to the world for downloading from each others computer ie .net framework would be open to p2p modifications - of course totally upto the users discretion depending on his permissions)

anyway - I beleive this is the dream of Microsoft - they are just taking it slowly - maybe the linux community could stop wasting time on drawing penguins and skip all the bull with gnome/kde and just make something that would really bring all programming/programmers ability together in a neat configurable format.
-the .net framework.
-no I'm not a MSOFT fanatic - but I have envisaged this day since the first day I saw Flash - it's taken a while, and I am surprised no-other giants have done it already. it would be an OP that would kick arse to Linux or anything else around.
imagine software consisting of nothing more than XML repositories - and you the programmer being able to mix and match XML declaratives between applications with nothing more than your already mixed and mathced amalgamted custom ide you made just for doing that.

-anyone want to start a PROJECT!
