I guess it depends on what your running. Any software that sticks pretty 
closely to the *documented* (such as it is) win32 api seems to run quite 
well. I actually do all my win32 development under win4lin and then test 
the software under wine. I then run it under wine whenever I use it.

I think in about 2 years of doing this I have had to fix about 3 wine 
bugs and work around a problem while someone else fixed it.

It's getting a lot better pretty fast.
