Absolutely possible with Wine or QEMU.

Correct, but arguably also true for Windows. There’s no Linux distro that has had two settings panels for years. IMO the only polished OS is macOS.



IMO Linux desktop needs more than one settings panels. I always need to edit by gconf-editor or editing /etc/, ~/.local/ .
