Anyone ever seen this before?
http://www.google.com/linux

It seems to be a search engine optismised for linux. For example, if you search for "word processor", it will return results for word processors available to Linux. Is this new?

EDIT I:
There is quite a few operating system specific searches:
www.google.com/microsoft
www.google.com/bsd

EDIT II:
www.google.com/mac

There might be loads more.

Say, how about that? I'm pretty sure I haven't seen this mentioned before, which seems kind of odd.

These options are available for some time now, I've listed them in a search engine module on http://kobus.c-f-h.com/ (left hand top).
There's more available there, Google doesn't want to know all options
