<p>New edition features support for Microsoft Office 2007, Outlook 2007,<br />
Quicken 2007 and Adobe CS2 product lines; coincides with release of Wine 1.0</p>
<p>SAINT PAUL, Minn. (June 17, 2008) - CodeWeavers, Inc., a leading developer<br />
of software products that transform Mac OS X and Linux into<br />
Windows-compatible operating systems, today announced the release of<br />
CrossOver Mac 7.0 and CrossOver Linux 7.0, both available for purchase<br />
immediately.</p>
<p>Both version of CrossOver 7.0 will include support for Microsoft Office<br />
2007 (including Outlook 2007), newer versions of Quicken, and the Adobe CS<br />
and CS2 line of products, particularly Photoshop.</p>
<p>"We're excited to offer Mac and Linux users significantly more supported<br />
applications," said Jeremy White, CodeWeavers' chief executive officer. "We<br />
think that Mac users, especially those in corporate settings, will enjoy<br />
having native Outlook 2007 support, so they can calendar and fit into the<br />
corporate IT structure just like all those other Exchange users. The same<br />
is true for our Linux customers, who will welcome the availability of the<br />
newer Adobe applications. Linux versions for these Adobe applications are<br />
currently unavailable."</p>
<p>Another major benefit of 7.0 is that it includes many of the elements of<br />
the hotly anticipated release of Wine 1.0, which was also released today.<br />
"CrossOver 7.0 contains many of the fixes that Wine 1.0 has, and will give<br />
users a great taste of what of the new version of Wine is capable of,"<br />
added White "We really feel that 1.0 will be a major step toward making<br />
Wine an application that will run all Windows applications, and we're<br />
excited for its release."</p>
<p>One of the areas of greatest enhancement in Wine lies in its significantly<br />
enhanced support for ActiveX controls within Internet Explorer. "A<br />
recurring theme we hear is the ability to use CrossOver to access Active-X<br />
intensive web pages," said White. "This upgrade takes a giant step forward<br />
by expanding the websites that can be used on a Linux or Mac system."</p>
<p>CrossOver Mac 7.0 Available in Standard and Pro Editions With this release,<br />
CrossOver Mac will now be offered in two versions – Standard and Pro.<br />
The Professional version features a longer support period, as well as a<br />
complimentary copy of CodeWeavers' CrossOver Games, a recently released<br />
application that runs many popular Windows games such as World of Warcraft,<br />
Guild Wars, EVE Online, Call of Duty 2, Team Fortress 2, and most Steam<br />
games. CrossOver LinuxPro customers will receive the same offer.</p>
<p>Pricing and Availability</p>
<p>CrossOver Mac Standard is priced at $39.95, and is a download-only product.<br />
CrossOver Mac Pro is priced at $69.95, and can be delivered with an<br />
optional CD. CrossOver Linux Standard and Pro mirrors that pricing. All<br />
CrossOver products are significantly less expensive than the cost of a<br />
Windows license, allowing CodeWeavers users to economically and legally<br />
circumvent the need for Windows.</p>
<p>The updated versions of CrossOver for Mac and Linux are available online at<br />
<a href="http://www.codeweavers.com" title="www.codeweavers.com">www.codeweavers.com</a> and in many retail outlets in North America, via<br />
distribution through Navarre, Douglas Stewart Co., Atlantia, and others.</p>
