Crossover.com?
Has anyone used it? Is it any good? Any problems?
My daughter recommended it today and I would like some feedback from all of you.
She used the Linux version. It sounds good, but I thought I'd check the DU genus bar.

1. Don't have a Mac, but I use WINE and Cedega for Linux however
WINE is free (now you also want to get WINE-DOORS) which is nice.
Cedega isn't - it's 5 bux a month for "web site access" which happens to include being able to DL/use the program.
I know they also make a mac Version.

Crossover is more spendy up front, but that's all it costs.
I think I would recommend crossover, as I use Cedega for Gaming and cross over is more for everything.

Sadly when I moved here (NL) I had to sell my Bandy blue, and my wife has forbidden me from buying more ... um... stuff ;).

I have an old Macbook 5200, but it's on it's way out - the screen is getting fuzzy and it doesn't even recognize the battery anymore.

Anyway Luck :)

2. Thanks, I watched the video on Bottles and Wine.
It's an interesting filing system. Now I'll have to look up Wine-Doors.
