Hi Folks,
I am pleased to announce that we have shipped CrossOver 8 for both
Macintosh and Linux. New in Version 8 is support for Internet Explorer 7
as well as support for Quicken 2009.
Version 8 also represents another year of dramatic growth in CrossOver and Wine.
You should see improvements across the board in all applications, not just
the ones we officially support. Of course, we hope you'll like the many
improvements we've made to Microsoft Office and Outlook as well.
A complete list of changes is included, below.
If you are an existing CrossOver customer with an active support entitlement,
you can visit our web site to download this latest version:
