  "CrossOver Linux 6.0 is another major jump forward for the
Windows-to-Linux movement. With this release, we intend to step boldy into
the gaming space and give our customers a more complete compatability
experience," said Jeremy White, chief executive officer of CodeWeavers.
"Leveraging the good work of both CodeWeavers' own developers, and the
open-soure Wine community, we're now able to offer substantially better
games support than we've ever been able to before."


New Games Capability
    World of Warcraft, the most popular MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer
Online Role-Playing Game) is a cornerstone of this effort. "World of
Warcraft is an immensely popular title, with millions of players around the
world, including many in our core markets," White noted. "We feel that it's
important to provide quality support for game titles such as this, and
we've labored to provide a very high-quality level of playability under our
product for World of Warcraft, as the shattered productivity of our own
office can attest!"


Better Support for Existing Applications, Too
    In addition, CodeWeavers has also honed its support for such popular
productivity applications such as Office 2003. CrossOver now supports
native connections to Exchange Servers via MS Outlook. In addition,
products such as MS Project® 2003 and MS Visio® 2003 are now supported.


Product Renamed from CrossOver Office to CrossOver Linux
    CodeWeavers' flagship Linux compatability tool had heretofore been
known as CrossOver Office. However, with the simultaneous release of
CodeWeavers CrossOver Mac product at MacWorld in San Francisco, the company
has clarified the naming of its products to indicate the specific platform
supported; hence the retirement of the CrossOver Office name and the
creation of CrossOver Linux and CrossOver Mac.


Pricing, Discounts
    CrossOver Linux 6.0 Standard is now available for $39.95. CrossOver
Linux 6.0 Professional, the enterprise version of the product, is priced at
$69.95, with volume discounts available. To download any of the CrossOver
Linux family of products, or to learn more, visit www.codeweavers.com.
