Oh lord, it's one of those windows replacment distros. God help us all...
As for installing wine. It does say software installed included. Use it. If wine or at least wines dependencies arent in their special installer, install something else. Nothing is easy when they decide to change everything to make it "easy"

How are you trying to install wine?
It installs with no problem at all if you simply install it from Synaptic.
You also might want to install winetools from thac's repo.
In order to install winetools make sure you have one of the following in your sources.list
rpm http://rpm.nyvalls.se/ pclinuxos/2004 thac
rpm http://www.mde.djura.org/ pclinuxos/2005 thac
You might want to take a look at the PCLOS wiki:
