Hi Bill -

Are these users giving any details? Specifically, whether they got
full functionality? I've gotten HNSKY to run flawlessly under Wine
but other apps haven't worked so well. I've been considering
purchasing Win4Lin, but if I don't have to spend the $99 there, I can
use it to purchase Guide ... (with $10 left over for a
Chinese/Persian buffet! :) ).

Occasionally I mull over reinstalling Win98 on my old laptop, but it
hasn't happened yet.

Thx,

Glenn Becker
