Crossover office fixes all Windows compatibility problems

[The Linux Kid]

I just want to point out that I just got an eval copy of CrossOver Office and I have found it to solve all of my compatibility with Windows. The main reason I use it is because (i know I will get flamed for this) I haven't yet found (in 4 years) a viable replacment to Macromedia Dreamweaver. I think that this will be the first linux program I will seriously consider buying. It is a really easy to use program (great for n00bs).

Does Paint Shop Pro work on this? I saw the site the other day, but I didnt see it listed. It would be great if it does.

I don't own a copy of Paint Shop Pro, but I did easily get Macromedia Dreamweaver and Flash to work, both of which are unsupported. If you want to have a look at Crossover goto Google and look for Crossover Office evaulation. Its a 30 day, fully functional trial.

Hope that helps,

I use COO, and I'd caution against suggesting it solves ALL compatability issues... though it DOES kick some major butt with many programs. I haven't had luck with PSP loading, but I have had luck with ProComm 4.7, and a host of smaller W9x programs. In a nutshell, what it does is create a fake windows directory for you, and then runs the installshield exe's... Is it worth the cash? I think so.
