WINE

WINE might allow to distribute older Windows software until a sufficient pool of Linux software did exist. Sufficiently old software may no longer be interesting for the software vendors but may still be useful on the laptop. Vendors might also be willing to dual-license commercial software for the OLPC laptop.

For example:

• GPI 1997
• GPI 1999
• GPI 2000
• GPI 2001
• GPI 2002
• GPI 2003
