I decided, after reading this thread, to give it another shot. I installed wine and winetools off Packman and tried to go through the winetools setup procedure. A lot of the setup options in winetools crashed with debugger messages. I almost got Internet Explorer 6 to run on my laptop this way -- it installed, but running it just gave me a blank window. I tried it on my desktop and couldn't even get a 'fake Windows drive' created that winetools thought was valid.
I've never installed Wine. I've successfully installed CrossOver office on multiple machines.
