Minitab

15.1 Retail and trial version of Minitab. It works good but the installation is troublesome.

How to install:

Download DCOM98, set windows version in wine configuration to "Windows 98", then run DCOM98.exe
Download Minitab 14 japanese (trial) and install it. (Don't worry if you can't understand anything: when the License window appears click on " :::::::::(A) ", it probably means "accept")
Set windows version to "Windows XP"
Download Minitab 15.1 and install it.
Reboot linux
Run Minitab 14 and then close it
Now you can finally run Minitab 15

If you don't follow this procedure you won't be able to use graphs and control charts due to runtime errors (actually I don't know why).

HowTo / Notes

HOWTO

Sometimes 3D graphs' windows will not close or minimize. If you want to minimize them go to window/minimize all; then you can restore only the worksheet and session window. If you want to forcibily close a 3D graph go to window/clos all graphs. This however will close every graph in Minitab.
