>Microsoft's love of backwards-compatibility
This is like, the primary reason to do this move. Wine has better compatibility for windows software than windows has now in my experience.
- int_19h 3y agoIt's far easier to port Wine to run on modern Windows than to port Windows to run on a Linux kernel.
