    Games are awesome! But can we get some love for the general business apps or even some of the more advanced business apps some time?

      It wouldn't make sense for Valve, a gaming company to focus on that. That's under the purview of CodeWeavers who sell CrossOver, a commercial version of Wine or Wine itself.

        Yah, I fully get that, it was more of a general expression of frustration at the wine success story. It awesome what they are doing, but I really wish we could get more apps working.

          I think the winSxS work is taking priority at the moment, Macs are having issues on ARM from the lack of 32 bit, it would help reactos, and reduce the need for multiarch on Linux.

            First time I've heard of ReactOS in ages. And to my much disappointment it still can't run anything past NT 5.2. Ugh... Talk about a waste of resources, by the time they get to Windows 10 I'll be dead.

                  Don't worry, there's plenty of usable DOS era productivity applications which work with DOS Box.
