been playing with WINE, trying to get some of my windows apps installed. I have PS CS installed and it loads most of the way (http://www.whogivesfx.com/Downloads/Screenshot-1.png) and looks kinda nice running the Clearlooks theme. If I can't get this running, I have to go back to the very primitive version 5, because my version 6 upgrade won't read the 5 CD and for some reason, I skipped 7.

On the plus side, Fireworks MX loads and seems to run well as does Flash MX, Illustrator 8 and Illustrator 9.

ugh... my list of licensed software is long, I wish I could manage to get it all running. Maybe some day. I really am starting to like linux alot.

have you ever used the nifty tool winetools? it setups up most of the important Windows files for you.
