Do they use wine code, do they use MS OS source code licencies, or how did they manage this?
IIRC they use MS licensed code.
We tried both MainWin and Wind/U many years ago but found that there was one major problem - whenever there was a problem in their API, we were at their mercy as to whether and when they would fix it. This is not acceptable for development or packaged applications. With Wine (and formerly TWIN and Twine), we could fix any problems in the API ourselves, on our own schedule.
My advice would be to save your money and use Wine. Being able to fix problems yourself is worth far more than the money you'll pay for one of the commercial cross development APIs.
