Wine is an open source project that takes the Windows API and allows you 
to run seamlessly Windows applications on your Linux machine. It's like 
having a small version of Windows packed up in your Linux system. Wine's 
API is 100% non-Microsoft code, but it uses Windows DLL in case you have 
them.
