Mac and Linux users - CrossOver Professional/Games FREE for today (28th Oct)

[Feek]

Today only.

http://lameduck.codeweavers.com/free/

Get it.

[Burble]

Got it! Thanks for the heads up.

[Daz]

Cheers, worth having at that price :D

Got the code but the registration site is down so I'll have to wait to finalise it.

[Feek]

I bought Games a while ago but it's good to have the full version.

[leowyatt]

Cheers Feekles, I'm also waiting for the site to come back to life ;D

[Mark]

The problem I have is whether to get the Linux version, or the Mac version. :dunno: ;D

[Daz]

You're a Unix bigamist :D

[Daz]

Alert: We're working on a different approach, check back in 30 minutes.
^^

[Desmo]

Dunno what the hell it all is, but I'll take a look later :D

[Mark]

You're a Unix bigamist :D
:D But...

Gentoo users in particular should note that we do not install or test on Gentoo, nor do we have any plans to do so, so you should use CrossOver at your own risk. We have many customers happily using Gentoo, but we also have a high number of users with problems on Gentoo.
:dunno:

Both, obviously, using two different email addresses ;)

[Daz]

They've put up full, unlocked builds for download for today only :)

I'd still register the serial number tomorrow for support/upgrades etc, but for now fill your boots, both versions :)

[AboveTheSalt]

Seems not to be working at present :'(

[Feek]

I've just grabbed all files, no problems and the downloads were nice and quick straight from here (http://down.codeweavers.com/)

[Mark]

Problem solved then. I'll get a Mac serial since both Ubuntu 8.04 and Gentoo are currently unsupported anyway, so it'd be pointless to ask for support on an unsupported platform. :)

[Mark]

Serial numbers are currently being given out, though it's still rather slow. Get them while you can. :)

[Mark]

So then, one year on...

Who used their Lame Duck and who is renewing?

Didn't use mine. Not sure I will which makes the justification on renewing difficult. Not sure what I'd use it for now either.

[Daz]

Didn't use it either, wont be renewing. Doesn't have that killer app really, I don't need to run any apps under wine, and wine 1.2 is reportedly very good anyway.

Games go on the 360.

[Feek]

I did, but I was using it previously and my own subscription ran out shortly after the offer. However the reason for me using it was negated when a decent native (ish) Eve client was issued so I'm not renewing.

[Mark]

I certainly won't be getting the Games version for sure. No use. iPhone is hitting that spot nicely and I have an Xbox not currently doing much (no time to use it :() with several games I haven't played.

The current license is a Linux Pro version. Sounds like Wine will continue to do the job just fine there - and not coincidentally is what I have installed and have used in the past.

[Burble]

I used it quite a bit to begin with but can't remember the last time it was used. I won't be renewing.

Bah deal closed before I even woke up this morning. Poxy companies that don't understand time zones :(

What, you mean the original deal that was on 28th October 2008? :p
