Some random suggestions... I am sure this has been suggested before, but I think it would be an 'added convenience' if there were a link to the creating setup.exe made in the start menu next to the "bash shell" link. I created one and have found it to be very useful. It might be a good addition. Other random ramblings. Also nice would be a command line tool similar to apt-get to install "as if from setup.exe" package x or y and its dependencies (exists?). Then you could run a command on it like 'update all my current packages!' from the command line or what not. Perhaps setup.exe could do the same thing. But anyway just some thoughts.
