Maybe you could use wine for "emulating" it?

No, i guess it won't work with wine. :(

Maybe with VMWare or something else (you could set up a "virtual" windows xp / 2000 / 98 and install FF7 there)?

Yes, as far as I've heard there is no way to play it on any system other than Windows. Of course, when Q-Gears comes out, it should be playable on linux.

it is hard enough to get FFVII to play on windows, I think the best bet would be to get a PSX emulator for UNIX and play that version.
