Ubuntu Linux, Day 23: Would You Like Some Wine With That?

30 Days With Ubuntu Linux: Day 23

Over the course of the three weeks I have been using Ubuntu so far for the 30 Days With Ubuntu Linux series, there have been sporadic comments suggesting that I just run this app or that app in a virtual Windows environment from within Ubuntu. So, today I am taking a look at Wine.

Wine has been around for 17 years. It started as an acronym for WINdows Emulator, but the software evolved from an emulator to a compatibility layer, and the acronym was eventually adapted to be Wine Is Not an Emulator. Now, Wine is just accepted as the name of the software for the most part without regard for turning it into an acronym at all.
