Sean: Wine?
me: Maybe
You know wine =P
Sean: It runs Warcraft III better than Windows (I shall use it at lan)
me: I don't believe that...
Sean: Why?
me: Wine can't be better than running it natively.
Sean: It runs it equally well plus the full screen can be got out of instantly because it is just a window that takes up every pixel.
Why?
me: Because it's emulation...
Sean: Have you heard of "wine for windows"? It's a project to get wine to run on windows, to run older games that the newer windows fails at.

WHAT DOES WINE STAND FOR BEN?
"WINE IS NOT AN EMULATOR"
Ben fail!
me: hides
Sean: Ayway
me: Out of intrest, if it's not an emulator then what is it?>
Sean: Playing under ubuntu is a better experience aside from the dual screen problem, so I might as well :)
It's a replacement for the libraries I think.
This is deep computer science here..
me: Yes
Hrm
Emulation would probably work better than Wine
But need a powerful computer
VM ^_^
Sean: Would ReactOS be considered emulation I wonder?
