The two questions I am talking about are:

- https://askubuntu.com/questions/259649/why-does-ubuntu-fail-to-run-exe-files-how-do-i-run-exe
- https://askubuntu.com/questions/988/how-can-i-install-windows-software-also-games

They are different but they both try to achieve the same goal. Can we consider them as duplicates?

I am biased towards [this answer][1] by [Rafał Cieślak][2] and would like to make that question as the master and merge the other answers from the second question.

I have already left a comment on both the questions linking to each other, but don't think it would have the desired effect.

What does the community feel and think about it? Is there any need of merger? If yes, which way?
