I know this is an incredibly simple question, but I don't think I've seen anyone in this NG ask about it as best I can remember. Basically, what's the pros/cons of WineX over the standard version from Winehq? I have no problems with compiling from source, but in terms of application support and suchlike, could anyone with experience with both versions of WINE give any advice?

Wine is a volonteer project, WineX is a commercial project based on Wine. So direct your WineX questions to Transgaming. Gerard
WineX supports more functions, especially graphics, but it takes some time for the transgaming folks to add thier DirectX code to the base wine release, so wine has more bug fixes.
