The anatomy of a release

I am very happy to report that we've shipped CrossOver Mac 8.0 and CrossOver Linux 8.0.

As with all of our major releases, this has been a long and difficult process. Of course, we couldn't have done it without our fantastic beta testers and our great community of Advocates. Thanks guys!

It's interesting to compare and contrast this release with our original CrossOver Office 1.0 release.

Wine and Windows Legacy Application Support
This whitepaper shows how Wine can preserve your investment in older legacy applications. With Wine, you can effectively continue running older versions of Windows (95, 98, etc.) long past their official end-of-life. Not only that, but because Wine is open source, you always maintain total control over your ability to do so.

Testimonials

"Codeweaver is the brick in the bridge that finally makes migration to a Linux platform a practical reality for those of us who use certain essential programs that are not likely to be ported to Linux."
   - Raphael S.

This 4.1 is the slickest ever. It's well worth the money for a nifty interface to WINE and not having to set the whole WINE environment up.
   - Bruce

"My most heartfelt gratitude to all involved in making CrossOver Office. I don't know how I ever managed without!"
   - Arrigo (a very, very happy CrossOver user)

We're very impressed that Quickbooks (New Zealand edition) works so well - complete with multi-user support. Money well spent!
   - Steve A.
