Is anyone following what's the Wine project is heading? I think that Win32 on top of a rock solid OS like FreeBSD would be a perfect marriage. I see a strong need for a unified GUI in the Unix world and be it Win32. Wait two years and all existing 16bit and segmentation anachronisms will be thrown overboard. Then we will face a exploding Win32 world (under a merged WinNT4.0 and Win97).
