Yes, give up. Your only hope for any performance is integrating wine and qemu (like what was done with Darwine). However, that requires Wine to build in ARM first.

Fortunately, there have been some ARM specific patches in the Wine git lately. But don't start getting excited.

Seriously folks, WTF?

YAY! I can't wait to get my N900 and then bog it down with 2 cpu-intensive layers of virtualization so that it crawls like a whore after a week of crack-fueled gangbanging...all to run some POS Windows app.

I feel like I'm on crazy pills. I need to go lie down. You folks need some counseling

lol!

anyway, trying this stuff we may open the path to future (on a N5000 in 10 years, I know) windows xp emulation!

I mean, I know it may seem useless and just geek pleasure, but everything has to begin somewhere ^^
In the mean time, somebody somewhere may have a exe he can run that he totally needs and without any existing alternative; in which case I'll be happy for him.

moreover, my initial purpose was just to ask if it may be possible! not to use it on regular basis or so

lol, I'm not sure if my last post was sarcastic or not... Lets just say I was very happy after finishing my paper and learning that my prof's son was born and class was canceled.

Yeah, but you are never going to run XP...

Better option would be to run it remotely with RDP or VNC.
