How To Use Windows Software in Ubuntu

A short video showing you how to install and use Windows software in Ubuntu. I use the programs ''Wine'' and ''PlayOnUbuntu'' wich I install from Ubuntu Softwarecenter. You can install applications such as Microsoft Office, iTunes and Safari. And games such as Far Cry 2, GTA and WoW.

Its a great video but i miss the sequal, it could be one showing how to change screen resolution adding soundcard support for various games, but when thats said a big thumbs up from me, simple and correctly showing how to install windows things using play on linux.
