i had an old version of wine, about 2mnths i downloaded it. i couldn't get it working at all, well i had solitaire going and was about it, and partly installed some games but they never worked. do i have to install the whole windows OS onto linux. i hope not, cos i didn't b4, my dream is to get my favorute apps working then dump that inferior operating system formerly know as windows. i just luuuurve the linux filesystem is very sexy. so tell me has anyone got all of quake 3 working, or any of it. and you just install the programs by running the setup.exe files right? cos i tried to do winword 2000 and it wasn't having it. i am saving for the new suse linux and then i will get into it big time. 6.4 is cool but dated and that, and i is buying up ram off of cruicial so is gonna be sweet system with linux, i justknow it. thanks for yer help Joe
