So, coLinux would allow me to run Linux, with the reliability and stability
of Windows...

The one-button mouse has always been one of my major issues with Mac
architecture, but at least it's easily overcome.

I don't think I've heard of one starting with a T, but you can look up
something called "coLinux" for details on one way to run Linux and Windows
side-by-side rather than as a dual-boot. I think there have been a couple
of other projects along those lines, but if I'm not mistaken this is the
only really functional open-source take on the idea.
