Today marks a major milestone for me, personally, for CodeWeavers, and for the Wine project.
Not only did we ship CrossOver 7, our best CrossOver yet, but we, together with the rest of the Wine community, shipped Wine 1.0 today.
Wine 1.0 has been 15 years in the making, and includes 9 of the hardest years I've ever worked in my life. When I became involved with Wine and Free Software in 1999, the concept that you could successfully give away your work and still stay in business was foreign; Open Source business models were laughed at, Linux was unknown, and everyone was just waiting for Apple to die. Using an operating system not made in Redmond was considered ridiculous.

Website Updates
We have added a videos section to our website. This new section will show CrossOver in action running Windows applications and games on Mac and Linux.
Also feel free to check out our shiny new Forums section. Use this area of the website to discuss about CrossOver.
Unsupported Builds. We now provide unsupported builds to our customers. These builds are right from our development tip. They are bleeding edge, but note: We will not offer technical support, if you decide to use them.
