Story: A little Wine with your Linux?
Posted by: Stefan (Friday 17 October 2003, 2:53 PM)
although i understand the problems the author had, he should have looked a little more into wine.
I'm using wine in a production environment, as i'm progammer under navision native database.
I experienced no problems so far, although some applications refuse to work with wine (such as Groupwise). Nevertheless i can recommend wine for linux-users, if they really need to use windows applications in linux. But i'm sure if a linux user is looking for a program similar to what he's used in windows he will find. Keep in mind that openoffice is a substitute for microsoft office, even i know that microsoft office is running in wine.
