I never had good luck w/ WINE or VMWare, but Win4Lin kicks some ass.
Windows apps run faster on it than native windows (or sometimes it feels
that way), its not a VM so it doesnt have the speed problems vmware does,
but unlike WINE it seems to work.

The best part is it reads ext2 file system in your windows applications so
you can easily read documents from both Linux and Windows w/o some
complicated process. I suggest you check it out.
