Download Wine 1.0 RC 4

The fourth and hopefully the last release candidate of version 1.0 of Wine was released on Saturday. This makes it possible to run DOS and Windows programs on Linux, Freebsd and Mac OS X, among others. Every two weeks a new version is released by the developers with all developments until then. That way the user community help with testing and troubleshooting. When the final release of version 1.0 comes out depends on the number of issues still to be resolved, but it is expected to take place sometime in June. As we are used to from the previous release candidates, the changelog does not contain any new features, but it does contain a large number of bug fixes:
