Is it compatible with Zorin? I'm brand new to Zorin and just getting my feet wet.

I installed Quicken 2002 with no problems on Play on Linux. It works better than just using Wine. Play on Linux makes a virtual drive for Quicken to run on. I use Play on Linux for all my windows based programs I want to run, not just games. I believe the Virtual Drive is the key to it's success. Hope that works for you.

There has been mixed experiences with PlayOnLinux - mine has been bad in that in Zorin it reports an upgrade available (in 5.0 Premium) but you can't seem to get it to install - personally I have had more success just using Wine! :)
