New Alien Arena 6.10 blows away its FPS competition
,----[ Quote ]
| I wrote last year that "Tremulous is the best free software FPS game I've had
| the pleasure of playing." Alien Arena has changed my mind about that. They're
| both great, and both stand on the shoulders of the free software Quake
| engine, but Alien Arena is now at the top of my list.

CrossOver Linux 6.01 review
,----[ Quote ]
| Though each CrossOver Linux (formerly known as CrossOver Office)
| release offers substantial improvements, version 6.01 is the most
| revolutionary release I have seen since I started reviewing this
| product circa version 3.0. Many important new programs are
| supported, but the real news is not in the number of programs
| supported, but also their purpose: World of Warcraft, Half Life,
| and iTunes now have silver (almost perfect) status along with
| dozens of other applications. There are nine gold applications
| now as well. Overall, CrossOver has again made a number of
| significant and upgrade-worthy improvements to an already
| useful product.

"Crossover - Easing a Linux Transition"
,----[ Quote ]
| The more I use Linux Ubuntu, the more I like. Earlier I tried to install
| some Windows apps using WINE, a freeware program to install Windows
| software into Linux, but with no success - for a newbie, I found it
| difficult to use.

| For this article, I took all these screenshots with an Ubuntu app, loaded
| the pics (with .png extension) into Photoshop 7, edited and saved them
| as .jpgs for this article. I am impressed with Crossover's ability to
| enable some very heavy duty Windows software to run in Linux, but also
| recognize that it's a great crutch that should not be relied upon long
| term.
