Publisher's Description
Wine (originally an acronym for "Wine Is Not an Emulator") is a compatibility layer capable of running Windows applications on several POSIX-compliant operating systems, such as Linux, Mac OSX, & BSD. Instead of simulating internal Windows logic like a virtual machine or emulator, Wine translates Windows API calls into POSIX calls on-the-fly, eliminating the performance and memory penalties of other methods and allowing you to cleanly integrate Windows applications into your desktop.

While this is great software, its getting to be pointless. Windows is dead, desktop is dying. The ONLY thing anyone will care about soon (if not already) is 'will my android app/game run on it?'. Thats why these guys should be working on a full blown android emulation or abstraction layer for linux. Thats reallyall that matter now, the war is over.

Wine is really good at everything but games now, and game issues are mostly cause by driver issues.

Why the f^ck does everyone think they need MS Office just to do email.. I'll never understand why people want any MS crap on their machines.

Am using a slightly older version in my Ubuntu distro, and it works great! Runs many of my Windows programs, including M$ Office 2010! Nice...

I'm running mint with wine 1.3.15 and typing in palemoon portable. Complaining about wine makes for a good laugh.

"Slipped it in - ...Even the various paid versions of Wine that some companies sell doesn't fix this."
Ummm, you do realize WINE is open source? If you're paying for a version of "WINE" than you got yourself ripped off!

This program finally works. Kind of. Low end games that use yesteryear's DirectX version now work. Except for the issue where going from full screen at 800x600 resolution back to windowed mode doesn't work. In my computer's case, going from this mode to windowed mode should change my resolution back to 1920x1080 and show my game in a window. Instead, my resolution stays at 800x600 and I'm unable to access any of the menus in Gnome 3 under Fedora 15. This program is still total crap.
