Another reason why this is so important

I've been in the business of trying to make Open Source into a business for about 10 years now. It's a long and hard process and I'm sometimes prone to bitterness and cynicism about it all, particularly when people just don't get it. But I've recently read Bill Vass's blog about Open Source and our…

Steady march to 8.0; builds for OpenSolaris and FreeBSD

We've been making good progress towards CrossOver 8.0. In fact, we are feeling confident enough about our progress that we put out a public release of the first beta. We've done this mostly for our customers that use Quicken 2006. This way, they can upgrade to Quicken 2009 before the support for Quicken 2006…

Linux and Mac

I've just returned from the Linux Foundation Collaboration Summit held in San Francisco last week. It was great fun - I enjoyed reconnecting with old friends, and getting a handle on the current state of Linux. It also marks an important point in our development as a company. That is, several years ago, when…

And now for something completely different

I've just spent the past 5 days in Nashville, Tennessee, bringing our chess club to the SuperNationals chess tournament - the biggest scholastic chess tournament of the year. This is my hobby - I discovered a few years ago that coaching kids in chess was an enormous amount of fun - even more fun than playing it…

The Weather and Other Things I Want Changed

I am not the biggest fan of snow. I think every Christmas should have snow as there is nothing quite like a 'white Christmas' to warm the heart. Just thinking of a night slay ride through the woods with the snow gently falling, trees decorated in lights, and the fresh scent of pine and sugar cookies in the air…

Two steps forward, one step back

Okay, so we've got our sales tax stuff all squared away (or so I hope; I'll find out tomorrow during the audit). Now we're driving hard towards completing CrossOver 8.0. We've done a ton of work that is going into CrossOver 8; we've got Internet Explorer 7 running, and we're working on 8. We've got a huge number of…

Fun with sales tax

I've been distracted this past week because I've been dealing with a sales tax audit. It turns out to be a fascinating glimpse into some of the collisions between a web-based business and the more traditional government processes. Because our only significant office is here in Minnesota, we pay sales taxes only…

My struggle with Wine and Lord of the Rings Online

So I'm blessed with a wonderful wife. She helped support our efforts around World of Warcraft by playing WoW with me (up until I got sick of it at about level 40). Last summer, we decided we wanted to tackle Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO). That is, we wanted to bring the Windows version to Mac and Linux.…

The Outlook for 2009

Tom Wickline pointed out that it has been 8 months since I had put out a road map. So I thought I'd take some time to review what we've accomplished in these past 8 months, and what we hope to accomplish through the rest of the year. This has been an interesting 8 months. We've deliberately been working on…
