    Linux inner workings vs. Windows inner workings.

    Linux has the rpm database Linux has config file Linux has users in /home; real users not like win98/98/me Drives are in tha Mandrake Control Center. Linux uses .so files, they do the same things dlls do in win.

    What's the point of WINE?

    Wine is developed in the hope that one day, if you have a friend that asks you "I whant to try linux, but can I use my olde programs on it?" you can answer "Yes!"; to know what apps run on wine, you can visit appdb.winehq.com on the wine cvs server you will find "Wine is alpha software, and is not indicated for general use", if it works for your software great, but if it dosen't you can just report a bug to bugs.winehq.com or just wait for a newer version that will run your app, if you have any problems with wine you can post a help mail on the wine newsgroup comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine and you will probably know in a few hours if you can run your app or if you have to wait for a newer version of wine. By the way you don't need windows to use wine, and you don't need a windows partition or any m$ files to run windows programs in wine. Ivan Leo the webmaster of digilander.libero.it/winehqitalia
