Why does there have to be a reason? It sounds funny but most of my best ideas I just do, I figure if the idea is in my head it must be there for a reason. Another reason I want to do it someone said it was an easy application to test wine with. A 3rd is its easier to compare the two side by side.

By installing it under Wine you mean in the Wine directory? So I cut the file .exe from downloads and paste into the Wine directory. Or do you mean I open the .exe file from downloads using Wine?
