Greetings everyone. Let me start by stating that I appreciate the enormous undertaking that Wine has been, and I am not suggesting that the ideas I will ask about in this post would be easy (or even possible) to implement, so there's no need to flame the n00b.
There is an effort to port Wine to the ARM platform. The problem is
like that for the Mac PowerPC platform, you will need a CPU emulator
until Windows programs start to appear for the target platform. Given
the number of ARM based 'objects', this may not be too far off.
However, running an emulator AND a bloated Windows program may prove to
slow for ARM processors as it did for the PowerPC platform.
