Wine can be configured from linuxconf,,, give that a go...
also, to use win4lin or vmware you will need to have windows running inside
linux,, so make sure you PC is fast and has enough ram (remember it will be
running 2 different OS's),,, otherwise I suggest you dual boot...

Subject: [newbie] eh?
I must confess to being an absolute 'newbie' on Linux. I have managed to
install lm7.2 correctly. all my devices see to be working ok except my usb
deskjet895cxi printer which i'm not too fussed about yet. what i am
desperate for though, is to install a '98 emulator to continue using
office2000 (sorry guys, but i really do need to use it!). i've tried the
'wine' thing using the rpm manager in knome but the damn thing still doesn't
appear in my program list. I really would like to use the vmware or whatever
it's called but don't know where to start. i need a real idiots guide to
downloading/installing, etc taking me right from switching on my pc to
switching it off! I'm pretty much a whizz on '98 / win2k, etc but Linux is
killing me. I was born and raised of DOS3.21 and i'm really struggling.
help!
p.s, while i'm on the subject. what's the best e-mail client currently. i'm
after something similar to oe5 but without the vb / java script support
crap!
