BTW, I would add that one should learn also how to run Wine without PlayOnLinux since a) it's good to know how to fix things on your own without waiting for someone from a front-end app to write a script or whatnot to fix the problem you may be experiencing and b) if you are going to be submitting bug reports to WineHQ then please note that PlayOnlInux is not supported.

I, for one, got tired of having to add PPAs as the OS should have all of the necessary packages and updates come via its package manager without the user needing to add additional semi-official or unofficial repositories just to have the latest updates for their graphics driver or something of the sort.

Keep in mind that this is just my opinion based on my experience with Ubuntu and Mint...
