Speaking of Crossover Office, Codeweavers just announced Version 3.0 of
Crossover Office Professional, which now incorporates the Crossover Plugin.
It now supports Outlook XP, and I just successfully installed Quicken Home &
Business '04 and am installing Lotus Notes 6.5.1
Now, if I could just get Nortel Contivity Client to work on it and my
company's secure Jabber app, I'd be set to ditch Windows for good. :-)
