CrossOver Mac released
CodeWeavers has released CrossOver Mac, its software that enables Mac OS X users to install and use Microsoft Windows applications without actually installing Windows. CrossOver Mac offers an easy-to-use single-click interface that, once loaded, integrates seamlessly with Mac OS X, according to CodeWeavers. Mac users can simply click on Windows applications in the Finder to run them under Mac OS X, and the same applications are loaded similarly from their install disks. CrossOver Mac supports numerous popular Windows applications such as Microsoft Office; Microsoft Viseo and Project; Intuit's Quicken and QuickBooks; and games such as Half Life 2 and Prey. CrossOver Mac is priced at $60 for the download version or $70 for the CD version, requiring an Intel-based Mac running Mac OS X.

That sounds so
convenient. I only wish I could run this on a my PPC Macs. (Damn!) I saw a Xandros desktop that was using a config of WINE to run a couple of MS apps the same way. It was very smooth, indeed.
