    Not sure this metaphor can be stretched enough to shoehorn wine into it.

    Wine is just an application and it’ll work in any desktop environment (KDE, Gnome, etc), and it allows you to run Windows applications. Think of it as an application that lets your system pretend it’s actually Windows

    (and for the pedantic neckbeards: yes I know this sounds like I’m calling wine an emulator, which it isn’t)
