The significance of 3D effects in simulating colliding winds in WR binaries is demonstrated for the examples V444 Cyg, HD 193793 and γ Vel. The effects decrease with increasing separation of the stars. A comparison with symbiotic systems is drawn and a simulation of the symbiotic system EG And is presented.
