Wine is not an emulator?

emh:
You can get the latest build of Wine here, as well as more information:

It is very easy to setup.  Its usefulness depends on what you try to use it with.  I've had no problem at all with games made for Windows 3.1.  I'm still working a bit on getting a few Windows programs working under Wine.  You can also look at this web site for a database of programs that have been tried with Wine:

As far as native dll's vs. builtin dll's, it depends on the program you're trying to run.

One suggestion I would make is to install it using a fake windows installation, rather than using the actual Windows partition.  The programs run much faster and better doing that, from what I could tell.
