Has anyone tried it out? I've got it on my Linux box running flawlessly with SimCity 4. I don't have the Mac version either...don't have a Mac yet (hopefully by the end of the week I will). Well anyway, if anyone's tried it, how well does it work for you?

I'm using the latest version of WINE on my iMac with Lion 10.7.3 to run several older Windows 16 bit programs and it works well. It will also run some Windows 32 bit programs but it requires more effort to get them working right.

A while back i experimented with WINE. I mainly used wrappers. The only game I ever got to run was Close Combat 2 - and that took alot of work.
