Well, I don't see why that would be the case. How much experience could 
you possibly need to tell users that they need to doubleclick .exe files 
to run them, which seems to be a majority of the issues around here? 
That's the kind of thing even beginners might be able to help each other 
with...

And once the users have learned how to doubleclick and stuff, they can 
then leave wine-newbies and seek further enlightenment from the wise 
guys at wine-users. Perhaps that might work...?
