As Marcus said at wineconf 2002, the end user doesn't want to know wine is
there, they just want to click on a windows program and see it start. And I
agree with him. And if microsoft wanted to support linux, it would be easy, linux
is open source and well documented. Also, if wine installation can be easily
done with well working binaries,why waste time with source? It's not what people
want to do, look at how many people download binaries, and how many people
download source, wine 20030813 has had 15419 binary downloads, and 2193 source
downloads, and the proportion will change even more in favor of binaries
when we get to 0.9.0
