@TheDaddy Its half of emulator. I.e. you run some environtment (x11), over which all the other progamms ported for it are works (like Gimp, Abiworld, Gnumeric and all the good stuff).
The problem, is that this environment is slow in terms of rendering of windowses, and reactions between menus. That lies somethere to the code of the cygnix itself.
So, while we have all that good linux based apps , and we can use it somehow, still, they a bit slow, a bit unreposive, non-intuitive, gui are non native, and so on. But it works at least, and when you have nothing better (like boot to linux on the same machine), or not have windows by hands, then it can be helpfull and usable.
