I think as msi is "The *Windows Installer* .. is an engine for the 
installation, maintenance, and removal of software on modern Microsoft 
Windows <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Windows> systems" (from 
Wikipaedia)", it's clear it's a Windows product ... not sure that 
they're up for putting it on other operating systems .. but you may want 
to email Bill G and ask him ..
