we could have VMWare installs of Wine and people could download the VMWare image of any Wine release and play it for free using the VMWare player !
Excellent idea!!
I guess the download size will be quite big, but a small distro with only X, Wine, Gnome and KDE and required dependencies for example could fit on half a CD I guess.
Do you know of any miniature distro(s) that carry these and (preferably) existed all along with Wine? If you have suggestions, I'd like to give it a shot right away.
If you remove the word processor I think you'll be under 30-40MB uncompressed with these ones:

I didn't find a ready to use minidistro with gnome or/and kde as these applications are really big. You could also try something like ubuntu and install only the minimum reqs of Wine.
Thanks for your efforts; looking forward to testing your VMWare machines !
