wine users - Feb 2010 - Windows 2003 Server / SheevaPlug

Hi all,

I am not technical when it comes to this kind of thing, and I'm not looking
for this group to teach me about WINE, Linux, or anything else from scratch.  I
have a question that I'd like to ask that's relevant to a project I am
consulting on, so any input is very much appreciated.  I have access to folks
that can get things done, if they can be done, which is what I'd like to
confirm here.

I have an application that is built to run on Windows 2003 Server.  For reasons
that I won't go into here, I'd like to know if I can:

Buy a SheevaPlug server and install a version of Linux.  Install WINE on that
server, and then install this application and have it run properly.

The application is designed to be accessed via web browser and the Sheeva can
provide that through it's native gig interface.  The app only requires 256K
of memory, and the Sheeva has double that out of the box.  The USB port will
give me the ability to add additional storage space as necessary.

Is this possible or am I dreaming?  

Thanks in advance for any and all responses.[/list]

No, because the SheevaPlug has an ARM CPU, not an x86. Sorry!

(Apart from that, I'd love a SheevaPlug as an ultra-minimal file
server to plug huge USB hard disks into ...)
