http://www.linux-community.de/story?storyid=23294 and
http://www.macnews.de/news/102145.html mention
that some users are using Cider from one game
to run a second game on the Mac.  The game vendors
are upset, and are saying they'll do something to make
that harder.  There is some question about whether Cider
includes LGPL components of Wine, and whether there
are any violations lurking there.
I imagine our friends at Cedega would
instinctively avoid such infringement, but accidents might
happen.  It'll be interesting to see if anybody finds a real problem.
