Well most of us must be wondering when can I use some useful softwares from windows in ubuntu. Here is the answer-You are just a few steps away from using those softwares. For that you have to install WINE. Go to the first link for installing wine. for initial start up go to the second link. You can eve play games like neo geo commandos(I have not tried most wanted yet Wink).

First link:

:p Yes, it is true that you can use Wine to execute most of the windows executable. But not all.
And I am almost certain that wine can't be used to execute most wanted as well as some other software that need to use DLL files across the windows system..
But still, it is a pretty useful software Smile
