August: A deeper look into Wine
 

For most people there remain a handful of programs locking them in to Windows. It's obvious there will never be a Microsoft Office ported to Linux, and older versions of programs  and thousands of games and internal applications which will never be ported. If you want to use Linux and rely on any legacy Windows application, something like Wine is essential... Wine makes Linux more useful and allows users to switch who couldn't otherwise. This raises Linux marketshare, drawing more commercial and community developers to Linux.
