The Null Device

The WINE Windows emulator for Linux may be a long way from replacing Windows, but it is bearing some fruit. First came WINE-based video players which used Windows codecs to decode proprietary formats, and soon Linux users will be able to use Windows web browser plug-ins in Linux browsers. At last; non-brain-damaged Flash support on Linux, not to mention QuickTime, Shockwave and such. Now the only reason to use Internet Exploiter under VMWare will be if you want a browser that doesn't crash.
