Hi 

Wine is still in alpha stages and the COM which is widely used now a days by
many Windows programs is still not proper in wine. So I won't suggest Wine for
any of the DEMANDING games except for say Minesweeper etc.

For your requirement I would suggest.

	a) A Win98 partition for all those Windows GAMES

	b) A WinNT partition for Programming and all other Windows stuff ( Not
good  for GAMING YET, Even WIN2000 BETAs are STILL BaD at DirectX v7 )

 	c) A Linux Partition for all your LINUX Stuff.

Keep :-)
