Review comparing Wine and Vista for running games

It'd be nice if we ran those games properly, but still,
at least we didn't lock the system.

To prove Wine is better than Vista:

1. Find a number of games that don't work with Vista but work fine with Wine.
2. Write a blog.
3. Everybody knows that Vista sucks.

Now a Vista user gets upset with the results, so he will:

1. Find a ton of games and apps that don't work with Wine but work
fine with Vista.
2. Write a blog.
3. Everybody knows that Wine sucks much more.

I think this kind of a silly game doesn't help Wine as much...

It may not be a help but like they say "there's not such thing as bad 
publicity".  A lot more people hear of Wine is better than not hearing 
about it.
