This is release 0.9.9 of Wine, a free implementation of Windows on UNIX. New features include better web browser support, recursive directory change notifications, debugger improvements, and lots of other bug fixes and under-the-hood improvements.

Also, wine can run Windows XP apps that Windows 95 is unable to run (for various reasons). I can't tell if wine runs on older versions of Windows or not, but if it did, it would make this extremely useful!

Interesting line of thought... Wine could revitalize old, broken Win apps for Windows...
