Been using Wine under Linux successfully to even play games and as far as I know Wine should also work for Apples running OSX+ (it's Unix after all).

So maybe anybody can give it a shot.
Wine is a good idea to the Ebook Library with. But do not use Wine to upgrade the firmware. You have a good chance of bricking. You'll need a true Windows system. An emulated Windows may not always have the USB timing needed for a critical application such as a firmware upgrade.
