I put this latest version of CrossOver to the test on two different PCs. I know this for a fact, because I've bought CrossOver licenses myself.
REVIEWS OF CROSSOVER FOR MAC LICENSE
If you'd rather just run your Windows application, and not worry over whether it will run better in Windows 98 or XP mode, CrossOver Linux, which sells for $39.95 for a single-user license or $69.95 for a multi-user license, is well worth the money. With CrossOver, you don't need to be an expert.ĬrossOver Linux delivers automated Windows application installation and technical support. You can use Wine alone to run Windows programs, but it requires a fair amount of technical expertise. In other words, this program has been better-tested for Windows compatibility than almost any native Windows operating system.
Wine is a very active project, with 16 years of development behind it.
As far as any given program is concerned, it's running on Windows so you don't have to tweak the applicaton itself to run on Linux. This is an implementation of the Windows API (application programming interface) on top of the Unix/Linux operating system family. But, if like many of us, you still want to use Quicken for your banking or you're stuck with a Web site that refused to work with any Web browser except Internet Explorer, then Crossover Linux 8 is for you.ĬrossOver Linux 8 is built on top of the open-source project Wine. Now, if all your desktop needs are already being met by Linux applications, you don't need to worry with Crossover. With CodeWeavers' latest CrossOver Linux 8, though, it's become so easy that anyone should be able to do it. It was never especially easy, but experts could do it. I was running Windows, and before it came along, MS-DOS, applications on Unix and Linux for ages.
