OSNews, Generic OSes I took them 15 years. During those years, the project grew from something that didn't work, to something that sometimes under special circumstances could maybe perhaps work, to something that sometimes just worked, all the way to something that works in a number of pre-defined cases. You won't believe it, but Wine 1.0 is here.

I have been using Wine for some time for playing some of my Windows games.

For me, for Wine has really improved since the start of the year to the point where I left Windows completely.

The following programs work for me...
foobar2000
Half life 1 and 2 (Including the episodes.)
Portal
Counter strike source
Day of defeat source
Team fortress 2 (Some performance issues)
GTA:SA (Performance issues)
etc

I use native applications to actually get work done ;)

Nice work Wine!
