CrossOver is not emulation. CrossOver is based on WINE, which means WINE Is Not Emulation (recursive acronym). WINE is native APIs reverse-engineered from Windows APIs, that allow Windows apps to run natively without Windows. WINE’s biggest drawback is that the reverse-engineered APIs are not perfect, so only a fraction of Windows software runs well, though compatibility has improved steadily over the years.
