and speaking of emulators and wrappers, i've seen some old games in dosbox wrappers na din. para di na dadaan sa dos console - click nalang from Finder to directly run dos games/apps.
Looking around..... Both Cider and Crossover are based off WINE with different developers, of course.

Personally, I rather have a wholly Mac-native port or just boot into Windows via Bootcamp. Either way, there's the benefit of running OSX-native at full speed or Windows-native at full speed. If I didn't have Windows computers here, I'd go the Bootcamp or native OSX route.
