“A couple weeks back I noticed the Wine-Doors project
was down and on their front page they have a message “Very very
broken and I don’t have time to fix it” So what should users who
have been using Wine-Doors, or any of the other closed projects do
in the future to configure and run their favorite Windows
Applications and Games on Linux or Mac?

“One option is to use Vanilla Wine from winehq and configure and
set everything up yourself. This takes some knowledge of how Wine
works and some time to test each small change to see if its helping
or hurting your Application or Games. You will also need to be
familiar with running regedit and editing the user and system
registry in Wine.

“Another option that is allot easier for end users and business
is to move to CodeWeavers CrossOver for Linux and Mac. Wine-Reviews
and CodeWeavers would like at this time to invite all of the past
Wine-Doors users to try CrossOver Pro or Games and receive a
instant 25% discount off any purchase. To receive the 25% discount
just enter “ComeToTheLight” as your special dealcode when you
purchase CrossOver.”
