Another example of Linux not being ready for mass market. If you want to update to the latest version of a software, if it is not yet supported in the default repositories you are on your own. And contrary to windows, it is not as simple as downloading and running a setup program.

1. Click your “Menu” button then “Administration” then”Run Synaptic Package Manager”
2. Click the “Settings” menu and then click “Repositories”
3. Go to the “Other Software” tab, click “Add” and put “deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-wine/ppa/ubuntu precise main” without the quotes in the text box
4. Click the “Edit” menu and “Reload package information”
5. Enter “Wine” without quotes in the search box.
6. If you have already had wine installed, right click wine, mark for upgrade, and click the big “Apply” button.
7. If you did not have wine installed, right click wine, mark for install, and click the big apply “Apply” button.

That’s it.
