I couldn't figure WINE out. I'm in a similar situation, needing to run
a few Windows programs on a regular, if limited basis. I tried
crossoveroffice, which installed without a hitch and works as
advertised. You can get a free trial version from their website, and
if you like it enough to pay for it it'll cost you $40. It is
closed-source, but apparently some of the money makes its way into
WINE development.
