There was Xandros Linux, which came with the Wine-based CrossOver Office to run Windows applications.
Xandros was based on Corel Linux. They acquired Corel's team and Corel Linux sources when Corel gave up on Linux. Interesting tidbit, although WordPerfect 8 was a native Linux application, Corel used their own Wine fork for porting WordPerfect Office.
Back then, the Linux distribution landscape was so much more exciting than now, when everything is just another fork of Debian/Ubuntu/Arch. Of course, it had downsides to -- distributions were far less compatible.
