I'm a big linux fan. However, due to my many windows applications of which I rely heavily on, I cannot move totally to linux. I would love to help in the development of wine but I have very little programming experience. Do you have plans to developing a 'distributed computing' type of system, in the mold of folding@home maybe? I think if you developed an algorithm that would look for windows tendencies and possible solutions where people who use windows could put on their computer, it would help the cause immensely.
I don't really know what such an algorithm would look like, unfortunately the Win32 API isn't amenable to statistical analysis.
