"Some people will complain that we should invest in
native Linux apps, instead of an emulator. My counter to them is
that, in the long run, this is what will happen: if WINE runs,
Linux will be widely adopted. Once Linux has a big market share, a
lot of companies will start producing native Linux apps also. In
other words, the number of apps is more a function of market share
than anything else. If we increase the market share, more apps for
Linux will be written. Hoping for the apps to be here first in
order to increase market share is wishful thinking."
