Thanks, Dan, its downloading now.  I hope wine can run it better than it runs 
googles sketchup, thats a disaster here as wines active x support isn't.  No 
icons on its toolbar makes it rather difficult to run.

And it is still lacking I guess, after going through the wine install, it 
advises me that its limited to the first 15 entries in the libraries, and 
also it cannot find fm20.dll, and after that it opens a blank white window in 
the middle of the workpspace and locks up.  The cpu is at 100% and I cannot 
now get back to that window.  The mouse cursor has an hourglass beside it.  I 
had htop running on another window so I was able to kill it.

Not a very impressive beginning and 92 megs of disk space used twice.  Wine is 
uptodate too.
