These are my success stories with a plain installation of wine (i do have windows, but i created a new config which doesn't use it)
Well, Acrobat can install and run pretty much perfectly. http://www.adobe.com/
With Latest CVS Acrobat Reader 4.0 seems to only have 1 problem (the licence agreement screen comes up behind the splash screen - but it is visible enough to move it anyway)
Family Tree Maker 9 runs really well as well Not freely downloadable Only problem with this one is the installer shows the setup instructions behind the background. - but the actual app works pretty much fine
Apart from setup this works very well, although not flawlessly. I don't know if the internet functions work or not.
The #1 at Tucows - IrfanView - works pretty much flawlessly as well. http://www.tucows.com/ - look for the #1 (or search for it)
In fact, after a little more detailed look, I would say this works *perfectly*
MS Calculator ;) works well
From the Microsoft Plus! Pack:
Again, not freely downloadable.
Spider Solitaire: FLAWLESS :) - just a tad slow on animations Pinball also FLAWLESS - again a little slow but works!
More coming soon...
Note: Pinball now comes with windows - so It can be tested out.
Don't include this in the list of working apps, but Adobe Premiere 6.0 has made great progress in the last month or two - It now not only opens, but will add titles and transitions (normal AVI files will not open however - it says that they are not a known compression format) - and when printing to video, it freezes after a few seconds (well, when I tried it anyway). There are also slight problems with the timeline (but it is still workable - a great wine success story)
Also, DK Multimedia's "The Way things work" works almost perfectly
I've done some screenshots of running applications in Wine which i'm going to post to:
a little later on today.
