Portable Apps runs fine under wine. I have a copy on my usb stick in 
case I go somewhere that only has Windows available. Since I don't have 
a Windows computer at home I test it under wine.

Of course I also have the Windows port of Emacs, so I can still run org, 
even if I am forced to use Windows:)
