Would it be to the advantage of Microsoft to have Wine succeed?  They 
have given Apple much support and at every class for the past several 
years the instructors have had a copy of Linux on every machine.  A very 
good case can be made for Microsoft supporting Wine especially since the 
RH secure kernel came via NSA and may very well become a DOD standard. 
Perhaps Wine should formally contact Microsoft.
