here is a few programs you might not have heard of that add some Linux like functionality to Windows

CygWin - A Linux like envoronment for Windows, lets you compile a ton of Linux programs on Windows for Windows, even comes with it's own implementation of the X Windowing System

MinGW and MSYS - A compiler and a lightweight fork of CygWIn, MSYS isn't as full featured as CygWin, but doesn't take up so much disk space

Npackd - A package manager for Windows, the best package manager for Windows I could find, supports a ton of packages but isn't as good or supports as much packages as most Linux package managers

coLinux - a port of the Linux kernel that runs as a user process in Windows natively allowing you to run an entire Linux distro inside Windows, so far it uses the old 2.6.x branch of the Linux kernel, so it isn't as full featured and might not run all Linux software

this is mainly for people who don't switch, not sure why they wouldn't, but these programs are a great option

If people don't want to switch to linux chances are they have no use for any of these tools
