Nah... Some people (like me) doesn't want to have windows at all. Sadly, karma is a b**ch and now I got a Win VM :) Yet, you won't need windows just to run a single app occasionally. I don't claim that wine is great, but it is useful . For me porting WINE to the BSD family is not worth it and utterly useless. On the other side ZFS is a more reasonable approach and if anyone asks - I think that openBSD can securely host VMs and in such use - ZFS or LVM can be quite useful. Best Regards, Strahil Nikolov
