So a Chevy is a Ford emulator, because it can use the same gas, right?

No, of course not.  Now, if the gas had to be converted to a completely 
different substance before it could power the car, then it would 
probably be an emulator.

WINE doesn't change the gas, it's just an engine add-on that just lets 
you burn unleaded or diesel.

And so ends "Lousy Analogy Theater".  We now return you to your normal 
program, already in progress.
