Ah, the Fluent User Interface.

Or, the FUI. Which is what most people say when they use it.
Following a few links from the site, I notice Crossover Games (crossover office does cedega) lists support for a few windows games that have native linux ports, such as Neverwinter Nights. Now why in the world would I install a windows game via anything that already has a linux native edition?
Are the native Linux editions as functional or as complete as the Windows versions, or are they glorified demos?
In the case of NWN, a true linux port. Separately packaged, OS specific updates for doze, nix, and mac. When Bioware released NWN they made sure that if someone wanted to play it, that they could.
