I remember first trying Wine - I actually installed (well, compiled) XFree86 just to try it - I was proper cli-only in those days. After a long weekend of compiling, I was finally able to run a very slow instance of mIRC - for less than a minute, then it crashed. I was amazed.
2 decades later, my Wife + kids are now able to enjoy The Sims 4 and SimCity on their Linux machines, thanks to the hard work of the Wine team!
And with the additional work of Crossover, Word & Excel too.
These four non-trivial applications, built without any portability in mind, work flawlessly.
