Subject: [Wine] Sandia Studies Botnets In 1M OS Digital Petri Dish


How about asking Sandia to sponsor Wine? If they are going to use Wine on 4,480
Intel microprocessors!

"Because most botnets are written for the Windows operating system, the
researchers are planning to use an open source program called Wine, making it
possible to run Windows-based programs without actually having the complete
Windows operating system. They said they were not using Windows itself because
of the licensing costs of purchasing one million copies of Windows."
