OK, I should try this with wine from cvs, since there have been some MSI fixes posted since three months ago, but with winev20041201, trying to install http://www.tivo.com/desktop/TiVoDesktop2-0.exe crashes, oh, exactly like OpenOffice did in January ( http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2005/01/0105.html )
FWIW, Windows OpenOffice seems just fine now. I installed it without any memorable problems a few weeks ago on a completely stock Wine install. (Long story why.) However, I don't think it's too hard to find MSI installers that break. What seems like a good example are Microsoft's "viewer" programs - Word Viewer, etc. Seems like complex installers for relatively small programs.
