Running Windows application on Linux

Posted on 3:45 AM by syah nooraiman

Are windows application can run on Linux?? Yes and no. Yes, application actuall CAN run on Linux, but NO if the smoothness stability is the issue. I had run some of the application ( most of them are games ), they run pretty smooth but somehow, i get stuck many times. The application is not as smooth as in windows but the developers out there really make something to ensure windows application can run smoothly on Linux. Top Linux application for running Windows application right now are WINE and CEDEGA

WINE ( Wine Is Not Emulator ) are an open source project which can be download for free. Wine is still in development but you can try it if you want and its pretty stable too.More information can be read here. TRANSGAMING CEDEGA in the other hand, is commercial software which you have to subscribe to use it. TRANSGAMING claims that CEDEGA offers same or in some situation surpass the performance in the original windows. More information can be read here. In my future post, i will show you how to install WINE. Have a good day..:)
