Re: Delphi, .NET and Linux

"Caleb"
but note that a Delphi app
running inside wine /is/ running natively on the hardware. Wine is not
an (hardware) emulator, it just catches the OS api calls and converts
them, as far as I understand.

That is correct. Wine is not an emulator. The parts of application that
don't call WinAPI directly run on CPU. However, it makes Wine only available
for x86 architecture.
