Oh, I did that as well and I am loving it, specially with the new va-api driver, which enables hardware accelerated video processing:

Performance is great for me. Better than using a VM. However I haven't tested on a dual boot and I deleted the Windows partition 2 days ago.
Exactly what I did 2 days ago. :)
It works without wine 1.4.
I did the same thing and it broke Netflix Desktop.
I did some additional tests.
- purged netflix and wine
- installed Wine 1.4, Crossover and Playonlinux
- Installed Firefox 16 and Silverlight on Wine 1.4, Crossover and Playonlinux

My experience so far:
Installation from PPA was smooth, after purging vanila Wine and Crossover. It complained about Wine 1.4 when I tried to run winecfg, but I didn't install it. However I did...
I am running a 64bit and did not installed Wine 1.4 and it works. I also purged before installing the ppa, just like you did.

The 32bit packages were built. The necessary packages are netflix-desktop and wine-compholio. I haven't tested yet.
I have found the PPA and it was updated 26 minutes ago with the netflix-desktop packages but they are still building.

I wish Linux users flood their survey with millions of applications.
Unfortunately, I still have to open a VM to watch Netflix. But this is a big step towards complete independence from Windows.

It would also be nice if they provide an option to run Windows games through Wine. But I doubt they will do that.
I wonder if we will have to buy games all over again or if the Windows versions licenses will be extended to Linux users?
Edit: Sorry, wrong thread. I was posting in the Steam thread. Dunno what happened.
Yep, I am still active. :-)
However, I haven't been proactively tracking issues as I used to do and I am no longer a regular staff.
Hopefully I will be able to interact more soon.
