When promoting Wine ...

Remember:

"Wine is a better and faster Windows than Vista."

Better: http://wastingtimewithmikeandari.wordpr ... han-vista/
Faster: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=a ... =681&num=2

Not that that's saying a lot ;-p

Aren't you being a bit too zealous? The second article is over a year old, and both Wine and Vista have matured a lot this past year. And The first one is very biased against Vista, which will probably turn down some users.

Vista SP1 is no faster than Vista release. Windows 2008 "workstation"
might be, of course.

Agreed, badmouthing Vista doesn't win any points
with the average Windows user.

And the slogan "X is a better Windows than Windows" has never worked...
