CodeWeavers' CrossOver Mac free beta released

Codeweavers has released a public beta of CrossOver Mac for the Intel-based Macintosh.

CrossOver Mac is a system through which Windows applications can be run alongside Mac OS X applications in a "rootless" fashion - not contained within a emulation or virtualization window. How does Codeweavers work that magic? CrossOver Mac has WINE (Wine Is Not an Emulator) at its core, a compatibility layer that provides alternative (native) implementations of the DLLs that Windows programs call at runtime. What's more, CrossOver Mac is tuned to run a select list of applications and games (about 2000 titles in length) with particularly high performance. We're not just talking MS Office and Lotus Notes, but 3D games such as Half-Life 2.

If interested, grab your 60 day free beta from CodeWeavers now.

See our original look at CrossOver Mac back in June 2005, one of our first articles.
