Title: The SuSE Wine Rack
Post by: preacher on 20 November 2003, 20:15
Interesting product from SuSE. It comes with SuSE 9.0, WineX 3.1, and CrossOver Office. The best part is the price $39.99. Thats pretty cheap, especially considering WineX and CrossOver office usually cost more than that. It might be time to switch from Mandrake and embrace SuSE.

I dont know about crossover since I would never use Microsoft office, however wineX is truly a good thing, and it works much better than the free version of wine, especially with games.

Just for the record I also do not use MS Office. I have been devoted user of Open Office since 1.01. I also wanted the wineX support for games plus I have read that crossover office will also allow me to run Dreamweaver which I use for web sites. Also SUSE is a company I believe in supporting.
