I have put Wine on my Computer from Ubuntu's Sypathic Package Manager... But it would be great if anyone out there is willing to tech me how to use it...

I just learnt about Sypathic - it great use it to get all kinds of stuff like Google Earth it has over 16,000 packages for Ubuntu :)

I know it that figure because its in my Ubuntu book

Just "wine path/exe"
When i want to run something (Example, mIRC) I just either make a link on the desktop for "wine mnt/windows/c/mIRC/mIRC.exe" (or whatever the path is) and it runs...

I thought this was alcoholic wine,and was thinking 'Why not just drink it?'

Wine Is Not an Emulator

or WINE for short is a piece of software for running some DOS and Windows applications on UNIX like operating systems:
