[clug] Light at the end of the Tax Return tunnel

Sitting down to do my tax return. Reading through the paper version,
sighing and wishing for an online one that doesn't demand I use
Windows. Idly bring up the Australian Tax Office web site, and on this
page (Titled - Information about other operating systems and
browsers):
http://ato.gov.au/individuals/content.asp?doc=/content/73931.htm
I found this quote:
"We are redeveloping e-tax to make it compatible with any computer
system that has internet access. We will test this with a small group
of users in 2008, aiming to make it available more broadly in future
years – pending the success of the trials."
The page mentions MacOS running Windows in a virtualised environment
as an example of (an)other operating system.
Allah be praised, in just a few years I'll be able to do eTax on a
Linux machine. I guess I'll be running Moldy Mongoose by then.
