It may enable you to run the ported apps natively rather through a not emulation layer. Of course either way you'll have to do a bit of work to get it all running without any problems. A useful thing to consider about Gambas is that the IDE is written in Gambas which means if you come across a bug, and you know enough about Gambas, then you'll have a good chance of fixing it.
