Iwantbatteries, that won't work, as Wine doesn't emulate the x86 processor only routes commands to it, and the Axim doens't have an x86 processor. To run regular StarCraft you'd need a full on PC emulator, such as Bochs. You wouldn't need a RAM upgrade either, Linux can still load stuff from CF card, if I'm not mistaken. It's just that the RAM is alocated entirely for running memory (erasing its contents). And, no I don't care that you were being sarcastic.

At one point and time a freeware engine that could run StarCraft data files, called FreeCraft, but that got killed by a Cease-and-Desist letter from Blizard. :( It could run WarCraft 2 files as well.
