[NTLUG:Discuss] Wine presentation

[Daniel Hauck]

Sounds like a chicken-egg thing that might work itself out either way.
Clearly, however, there is a need to make Windows apps run EASILY under
Linux.  There should be a means by which a user should be able to click an
icon somewhere that says "Install Windows application."  I can think of a
lot of scenarios for how that could be implemented, but to my knowledge it
hasn't been done that way yet.  But imagine running "setup" and everything
works just as easily under Linux as it does Windows?  I know we all think
that it would give greater "user" appeal, but let's not kid ourselves... it
will have the greatest impact on administrators.  Administrators are FAR
more lazy than users.  Users only tend to one machine... administrators to
>1 machine.  Think about it.
