    iTunes running in 10.10

    I was using the gnome-shell for a little bit to get accustomed to the coming change in march but I removed it. Shortly after, I decided to update my wine, and get the lastest itunes.exe. I save the exe, allowed executing permissions and ran the install. IT WORKED. I did not allow it to be my default player, and I did not allow autorun. whenever i open it says installation error but I hit ok and I am graced with itunes. I still can sync my iphone with it, I guess it can't recognize it.

    occasional crashes when I get click happy but playback works most of the time. some times i have to logout in order to try it again. authorized itunes purchases work thru it.

    tell me what you guys think.

    I tested today on ubuntu 10.04 and it works here too. It's slow but my pc is old. I was able to listen to a few preview of songs from the store and browsed the ipad app store. I don't have any idevices jet, so I was not able to test any connections. It's my first time with itunes so I had some trouble to understand the logic.
    SebSmith you don't have to logout to take wine down. I used "wineserver -k" a few times from the command-line.
