Crossover Gets Quicken

Posted by Hemos on from the sweet-sweet-quicken dept.

Jeremy White writes: "involved with the Wine project 4 years ago, a major personal goal for me was to switch my wife's computer to Linux. But there was a simple caveat: "No Quicken, No Linux." As of today, CrossOver Office now supports Quicken (and my wife was beta tester #1 *grin*). The new version, 1.2.0, also supports Visio and fixes a raft of bugs. The press release is at Codeweavers and a review can be found here. " I've got a similar situation - been running Quicken for the last ten years, and have only one data section lost, so this is pretty darn cool. And it freakin' works.

    I use crossover plug to run Office 97 and it randomly locks up all the time. There is no way I'd use that or anything wine- related in a production. Atleast not at any job I value. Freaken Winex w/ counter strike has been broken for 9 weeks now with "a fix right around the corner". To bad turning that corner has now taken 9 weeks.

    Seriously, BillG is in the top 5% when it comes to perpetrating evil in our world.

    The truth shall set you free my child. Christ wants you to use Linux. Linux is Good. Windows XP is Evil.

    Thank you.
