Installing Wine 1.8 on Ubuntu 14.04

Wine is a Compatibility layer for running windows applications on Linux and Mac OSX. Instead of simulating internal Windows logic like a virtual machine or emulator, Wine translates Windows API calls into POSIX calls on-the-fly.

In this post I will show you how you can install Wine on Ubuntu 14.04. It is really easy to install it. We will be doing most of our work on the command-line using apt. It is the best and easiest way to add ppas and install pakages in linux.
