Most Mac and Linux users think anything Windows can do their operating systems can do better. Often, they’re right, but then there comes that day when they really need to run that one special Windows application and then they’re stuck. There are many ways of handling this. Some people keep old Windows PC around; others dual boot their computers; and quite a few run virtual machines (VM)s of Windows on their Linux PCs and Macs. That’s all fine, but it’s also a fair amount of trouble. Then, there’s CodeWeaver’s approach: Use a program, CrossOver, which enables you to install and run the one or two Windows applications you need on your favorite operating system.
