Preview 3 of square, native 64bit, works real nice, fullscreen HD (except under compiz), the kid's games, the works. Booting into XP for comparison you can tell it's still slower but it's getting subtle.

Interesting! Still non-free so rather icky, but we couldn't expect miracles. I'll try it out (though again I don't see how it could get Machinarium working, as that appears to contain its own nonfunctional Flash player).
