I'm using Codeweavers WINE alongside Windows 2000 Pro. About half the programs I have tried have. Admittedly the ones that haven't have tended to be the heavyweights like Paintshop Pro (although that IS alleged to work OK.. wonder if it's just Win2K it doesn't like? I know there are issues!) I'm running mine in fake_windows mode and it seems to work OK. What versions of Wine are you guys running?
