I have recently started using vmware to run windows inside linux, for
those occasions where I really need it, and the program doesn't run in
wine. That way you also get around the driver problems. It is not much
slower than running on 'metal' (I think if you use a fixed-size drive
rather than dynamic it is faster still). But most things I need run in
wine
