This news itself is already almost a week old and many of the major

MP3 options in the original.
This seems to be faux news. IIRC It still doesn't run M$ Office
which is the gold standard for any Windows emulation. Correct me if I'm wrong
but it seems they just lowered
their standards to get to v1.0 for the publicity.
You are wrong. Please see the AppDB <http://appdb.winehq.org>
for which applications run under WINE.
M$ Office is NOT the application(s) that people want to run on WINE, and
it is not the Gold Standard, which is one level less than the Platinum
standard. The number one application that people want to run that
currently doesn't run well is "Final Fantasy XI Online". In fact, just
about all the top apps are games.
If you need more hand-holding than what WINE provides you can purchase
the Crossover Linux product from Code Weavers
<http://www.codeweavers.com>. The Code Weaver guys are very good at
feeding their stuff into WINE for continuous improvement.
