In ubuntu, a new context menu item is added and i can right click on a "set.exe" file and select "run with wine". Anyways i could see it was emulating "c:\\program files\" and maybe there is some hidden registry file too. Well all in all it was intelligent enough to place a link to that app on my desktop. The first app i installed was 'gtalk' but it didnt work out that good. It was missing the buttons and i could only see the text boxes. Maybe i would look into them when i get more time. Then i tried Ultraedit editor and it did install good. Heres a screenshot to that!

Ok so it did go smooth, now i am on my way to install winamp and some other apps i liked on Windoze. Now you would be tempted to ask why did i install ultraedit instead of using linux editors like kate or bluefish. The thing is i like kate but it is not as refined as ultraedit. And even if this sounds lame i like it so you who cares if its a windoze app.
Cheers
