How about asking Sandia to sponsor Wine? If they are going to use Wine on 4,480 Intel microprocessors!

"Because most botnets are written for the Windows operating system, the researchers are planning to use an open source program called Wine, making it possible to run Windows-based programs without actually having the complete Windows operating system. They said they were not using Windows itself because of the licensing costs of purchasing one million copies of Windows."
