Wine is intended to be used without Windows. The main reason for having 
Windows is for things that are not yet fully implemented in Wine (often 
this means installers).

So I would think the best thing to do would be to not use Windows, and 
try Wine with the applications you are interested in. If that works, no 
reason to mess with Windows at all.
