It is not absolutely true that you must have windoze 
installed for wine to work.  The deal is, wine contains
a set of its own versions of many windoze files.  They 
are not quite up to "snuff" in many cases to the actual
windoze counterparts.  If you have a real version of
windoze installed, you can have wine use the real files/
dlls rather than the wine versions.  This, in many/most
cases will result in better luck in getting a doze app
working.  

You could find out what files, exactly, it is that wine
would use from a real windoze install, copy those to a
disk or floppy for archival use and replace the wine
versions of the files with the actual windoze versions, 
getting the same effect as having an actual version of 
doze installed.

>From what I understand, for wine to work properly you must have windows
itself installed and wine uses the api's from there.  Is there an emulator
of windows that I can use that I don't need to have a registered copy of
windows?

Thank you for any help
