Britannica 2002 works well on CrossOver 4.2 and Gentoo Linux. Make sure you have installed a new Internet Explorer; with the one delivered with Britannica 2002 it does not work. Installation is straight forward. Animations in the Knowledge Navigator are bad but maybe work better with an update of needed software. A negativ point: although I installed the complete version it always asks for disk 1 when searching for words. All in all it is a pleasure to run Britannica on CrossOver.
