on this, it's an API layer.</span></font></p>

</blockquote></div><br>I definitely aggre with that. I'll change the two cases where the term "emulator" is used. I'm also wondering if a link directing to the Wine section on the forums would be useful. It's probably more up to date than the wiki page, and users can get support that way too. Thoughts?<br>
