I'd like to have a couple of windows app working in linux without rebooting (visual basic and JMP). I downloaded codeweavers wine but I have a question about windows partition or no windows partition... My present system is not dual boot. So ideally I'd like to run wine without a "real" windows partition. However, I have heard that wine works better with a "real" windows partition. What is the consensus on this issue? Also, once you have wine installed, what is the procedure for installing the windows apps you want? Thanks, Kirk
