Using Microsoft's new DLR (Dynamic Language Runtime), dynamic languages, like 
Ruby, Python, and Javascript, can be compiled into MSIL (not interpreted). 
That's also pretty cool for another reason - you can mix programming languages 
within a single application. You can write one part in Ruby, and another part 
in C#. Plus with Silverlight (Moonlight on Linux) you can download and have the 
application running securely within your web browser. 
 
The Mono team is doing a great job creating an open source version of .NET 
Framework for other OSs besides Windows.

BTW. Please no flames if you think Microsoft is evil.
