I mentioned to Adam at last nights meeting that I grabbed the box of CD's that each workstation has in the elementary lab so that I can try to get them running under Wine. 

I was able to get Putt-Putt to install but I am unable to get it to run. Unfortunately I haven't been able to spend enough time with it to even form a decent question to ask. Hopefully I'll have more time this weekend.

I think the problem is more related to me not understanding Wine as opposed to the application not being able to run. I seem to be missing that little piece of information that will get mo over the wall with WINE.

Yes Adam, we need a Wine guru!
