i think ubuntu works with most mac and windows things as it is open source and oesn't have its own applicantions

If you run Leopard in a virtual console, I don't see why not. Other than that, no I doubt it

I'm sorry, I don't believe that you can use PwnageTool with Ubuntu at the moment. Just wait.

Are you kidding me? Ubuntu (or any Linux distro) has thousands of applications designed for it. Applications made for Windows, or Mac, will not work (unless they have been ported).
Open Source means that the code is readily available. Not that it doesn't have its own applications.

I tried PwnageTool on a Virtual Mac on my PC.
The application itself, worked, and it managed to create the firmware file.
Dont have any compatible devices, so I deleted the file, just wanted to test it.
Im sure if PwnageTool was required to talk to the device, it wouldnt work, because device recognition doesnt work right w/ Virtual OS's

Half true. You can run Windows applications on Linux with WINE.

And I'm sure theres Virtual Mac's and Virtual PC's for Ubuntu, right?

None for Mac. You can run VirtualBox to emulate Windows.

Yessir. VirtualBox is cross platform. Its like VMWare Fusion or Parallels or VirtualPC. But Free.

Huh.
... Wow.
I have to get off Windows for a few days.
Like I never thought of upgrading to a Mac because all the compatability problems, but I never knew it would be so easy to run some of my fave Windows apps.
... Do Virtual Windows programs communicate with devices on any of these?

VirtualBox/VMWare Fusion/Parallels can do some degree of USB. If you ever get a Mac or Hackintosh, I wouldn't worry about Windows App compatibility since you'll find many and better alternatives to what you use on Windows. Only in extreme cases will you need the Virtualization apps or Compatibility layer apps (Crossover)

Haha, I knew right after writing that that someone would come in with WINE. Yes, you can run some Windows applications using WINE. Thank you for being the one to come in with that.
Next time, Ill include 'natively, straight out of the box, without too much hassle'. Because WINE is far from hassle free.

Some distros have already set up wine for you so all you have to do is run the Windows executable.

false. you can run any of the osx86 releases (iatkos, ideneb, ipc, etc) within VMWare.
