How Necessary Is Windows? Part 5: Crossover

,----[ Quote ]
| After 16 years of dogged work, Wine 
| actually works pretty well. Part of its 
| success is due to a remarkable cooperation 
| between the Wine project and a commercial 
| software house in St. Paul named 
| Codeweavers.

How good is WINE at running Windows software on Linux? Good enough to get infected

,----[ Quote ]
| Filip was rewarded with an incredibly annoying
| bogus app that didn't care what platform it was
| installed on. Win Police Pro set up shop and
| began "scanning" his WINE C: drive for
| "viruses," and WINE neatly transformed the
| Windows system tray alerts to Gnome
| notifications. The infection was also able to
| attach itself to the WINE registry.
|
| While it's not the most positive endorsement of
| WINE around, it's still pretty impressive that
| an app like this was able to function without
| missing a beat (apart from a single error
| message).

CrossOver Games 8.0, Now With Zombie-Plague Protection

,----[ Quote ]
| It's been a while since CodeWeavers updated CrossOver Games and today's
| release of version 8.0 is a doozy. If you're not familiar with CrossOver
| Games 8.0, it's a great option for anyone who want to run their Windows-based
| games on an Intel OS X Mac or Linux PC. It supports hot games like World of
| Warcraft, Call of Duty 2, Grand Theft Auto2, and a whole lot more.
