Wine 1.0 installation instructions are available for a whole slew of distributions, including Fedora, Red Hat, SUSE, Mandriva, Slackware, Ubuntu, Debian, FreeBSD and Solaris. Or if you wait a few days there's a good chance the latest version of Wine will be added to your distro's official repositories.
To be perfectly honest, you might not notice a ton of changes from previous versions of Wine. But the latest build does include a ton of fixes for specific applications including WinRAR, Skype, Dragon Naturally Speaking, and video games like Call of Duty 1.0

Most games made after the turn of the millenium still run poorly or not at all. A big fat "feh" to that.
I think the root of the problem is that 3D card manufacturers don't take Linux seriously, because it doesn't have the market share, because it can't run games, because its drivers suck, because 3D card manufacturers don't take it seriously...

You do know that Wine stands for "Wine is not an Emulator" don't you?
It is an open source implementation of the windows API.
