Provided Wine is now broken on most modern OSes that only ship with 64-bit binaries, there are tons of reasons why Wine is still relevant. There are gazillions of abandonware (badly) written for old versions of Windows (Win 3.* up to XP) that don't even run properly on Windows 10 but run beautifully on Wine. I have to thank Wine for getting my amateur licence because I had to run a multiple question trainer written circa 2006. Not to mention countless old electrical/electronic software that nobody is bothered porting to 64-bit *nix. -- Ottavio Caruso
