the following works for the 701
[edit] and also for the 901!

to install wine 1.0

open a terminal (alt+ctrl+t) and type:
sudo kwrite /etc/apt/preferences [press enter]
copy and paste this to the file:
Package: *
Pin: origin updates.xepc.org
Pin-Priority: 935

Save and exit kWrite

in a terminal (alt+ctrl+t) type:
sudo kwrite /etc/apt/sources.list [press enter]
copy and paste this line to sources.list:
deb http://updates.xepc.org/ p701 main

Save and exit kWrite.
Staying in terminal type:
sudo apt-get update [press enter]
Staying in terminal type:
apt-cache policy wine [press enter]

if the return is Candidate: 1.0.0-1+eeepc2
from xepc then all is good!
Staying in terminal type:
sudo apt-get install wine [press enter]

when installed, from terminal type:
winecfg
opens settings for wine
