“Some Linux users insist that anything you can do on Windows,
you can do better on Linux. While there’s some truth to that, many
of us have Windows applications that make completely leaving
Windows close to impossible. That’s where CodeWeavers’ latest
version of CrossOver Linux comes in.

“CrossOver Linux 9 (code-named Snow Mallard) and its Mac
brother, CrossOver Mac 9, let you run many popular Windows
applications on Linux or Mac OS X. Supported Windows applications
include Microsoft Office (from Office 97 to Office 2007), Internet
Explorer 6 and 7, Outlook 2002 to 2007, all current versions of
Quicken up to 2010 and QuickBooks up to 2004, and some versions of
Photoshop and Photoshop CS.”
