I have gone back over the original installation and I have found the problem!!

At the point where it says:
"If you haven't installed Wine yet, go to Applications->Add/Remove and search for Wine or just click this link."

The link is to apt://wine but this SHOULD be a link to apt://wine1.2 

It is amazing how much time I have spent all because of a missing 1.2!!!
