Wine is excellent, but limited. VMware have a non-commercial "hobbyist" version for 99 dollars (have a look at the online store and scroll down a bit on the "buy" page). There's a cheaper product called Win4Lin (http://www.netraverse.com) which I've heard good things about. It doesn't support NT, however, which VMware does. This is probably what you read about on slashdot.
