New Linux or Mac users will mostly find it difficult to
use those operating systems. The sole reason behind this is windows addiction. We
are all adjusted with Windows and it becomes a tough job to accept to the new
foreign environment. That time you wish to have all windows softwares are
available for Linux. Now, even you can run applicaitons of Windows on
Linux, FreeBSD and also MAC.
Wine is
a free program loader which does the job of running windows applications
on Linuxand Other POSIX compatible
Operating Systems. Any Windows program running on Wine will act as native
programs and will not result in reduced performance nor use any extra
resources to run the applicaiton.
Though Wine is still under development and not ready for
general public usage, people have already started using it and finding the
right advantage of the software. On the official website of Wine, there is an application database which shows the compatibility of different windows based applications
with Wine. There are few third party applications built on Wine and you can make use of
them if Wine doesn’t work for a particular application.
Currently Wine is available for download in these Operating
Systems: Ubuntu, Red Hat / CentOS / Fedora, SUSE, Debian, FreeBSD, Mandriva,
Slackware, PC-BSD & Solaris.
Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!
