Is Winebottler a good program for running Windows Programs on Mac?

Program's website here

It seems to work well in videos I've seen, and I wouldn't have to pay money for VMWare Fusion, and Windows for the very few programs a I don't even need, just would like to use. So have any of you ever tried it, or heard of it? Good or bad?

I've tried it, and I've failed. It might have just been the application that I was trying to use. I think that the idea is great, but I think that it needs to be improved.

I just tried it with a few programs. They ran extremely slow :/

Hopefully they'll fix it when they release the full version...

I thought that they have already released it. I think that it's going to be better in the future like all successful software.
