Wine 1.1.5

Wine 1.1.5 is an Open Source implementation of the Windows API on top of X, OpenGL, and Unix. Think of Wine as a compatibility layer for running Windows programs. Wine does not require Microsoft Windows, as it is a completely free alternative implementation of the Windows API consisting of 100% non-Microsoft code, however Wine can optionally use native Windows DLLs if they are available. Wine provides both a development toolkit for porting Windows source code to Unix as well as a program loader, allowing many unmodified Windows programs to run on x86-based Unixes, including Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, and Solaris. Wine 1.1.5 has the following changes:

In my local paper, the L.A. times, I read an interesting article about scammers trying to advertise “refurbished” consoles for sale. I am one of the few i guess that still doesn’t have one of those next-gen consoles. According to the paper, scammers are selling a factory-refurbished Wii for $19.99, or an Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 — including a one-year warranty and free shipping — for $34.99. That’s  less than the price of a game remote.They were offered on several related websites, such as PS3-Bargains.com and ReurbishedWiis.com. The websites’ lists of frequently asked questions say the “slightly worn” systems are offered at such a low price — more than $150 less than anywhere else — because the site gets paid by sponsors “for every survey you fill out.” But customers are complaining that although their credit cards were billed, they never received the game consoles, let alone any surveys to complete. Surprised? Can’t say that I am. Heres a list of sites the L.A. times lists that you had better avoid (and i’m sure its nowhere near complete):
