Secondary Sales Click N' Run ...
The reason it because they want to drive secondary sales to Linspire's Click N' Run (CNR) repositories for Crossover.

I voted no since I agree that driving secondary sales to CNR is a good thing. With CNR commerical software and codecs are ready for purchase and download.

This will allow Linux to gain more acceptance as a platform with the ease of use factor of commercial software install as a selling point.

BTW You can easily install Wine without any hassle:

sudo apt-get install wine

or use the package manager.
