I saw this on J!nx earlier today and thought it was pretty cool.

This may further increase the amount of people that will give Linux a try. I haven't read all about it, but it seems like it would simplify things for the computer illiterate or those that have trouble booting CDs and such.

for ubuntu:
http://wubi-installer.org/

not tried it yet but i thin it has the same concept as the debian one.

Pretty much.

Except it is a bit more manual.

Wubi is automatic actually. It downloads the file and you restart and it installs itself.

Yeah, but for me, it gave me the wrong file. It recognized my system as something else, when it is i386. So I had to manually go to the directory and retrieve the file URL and plug it into the installer.

EDIT: I tried the new version, and it worked correctly! w00t
