The Intel PC emulator supports the execution of Windows apps on virtual machines.
The software functions as a compatibility layer that mimics the Windows API for running Windows programs. What's amazing is that it is a free alternative implementation of the Windows API, consisting of 100% non-Microsoft code. However, it also has the ability to integrate with native Windows DLLs if they are available.
Aside from being a program loader, Wine also features a development toolkit that allows for simple porting of Windows source code to Unix. This capability sets Darwine apart from other similar software, as it allows many unmodified Windows programs to run on x86-based Unixes. Overall, Darwine is an excellent choice for Mac OS X and Darwin users who require the functionality of Windows applications without the need for virtual machines or dual-boot setups.
