If during reading this document there is something you can't figure out, or think could be explained better, or that should have been included, please immediately mail to WineHQ Web-Admin or post a bug report at the Wine Bugzilla to let us know how this document can be improved. Remember, Open Source is "free as in free speech, not as in free beer": it can only work in case of very active involvement of its users !

Notes

Technically, if you have two networked computers, one running Windows and the other running Linux, and if you have some sort of X server software running on the Windows system, you can export Linux applications onto the Windows system. A free X server is available at http://xfree86.cygwin.com/. However, this doesn't solve the problem if you only own one computer system.
