Another wrinkle in my planning: I have a favorite personal financial management program (i.e, checkbook plus) that I've been using under OS/2's Win3.1 capability for the past 13 years. Because it does the job I need, and it has 13 years of data, and did not export satisfactorily to Quicken 98, I would like to continue using it. It is a straight Win 3.1 program and it would not install under Win98 or Win2K. Can Wine run Win 3.1 programs without a DOS/win3.1 partition, and how would it install (especially given that it won't install under Win98/Win2K)? Thanks for indulging me my attachments to legacy software! anandpursahibwale@xxxxxxxxx wrote: > I'm planning my first Linux/Wine install.
