I purchased this product a few days ago and it is working very well so
far. 

I purchased both Crossover Office and Crossover Plugin.  

Crossover Plugin is great for access to MS WordView and ExcelView - just
click on the attachment icon under Kmail and the appropriate viewer is
launched without having to save the file and load under VMWare. 

I've also installed Office 2000 and so far it seems to be working very
well, with only the odd bug or two. 

I imagine the stability and flexibility of the software will increase
significantly over the next few weeks.

All in all, this software may well make my use of VMWare redundant in
the very near future.  

The applications also run far faster under CrossOver / Wine than
VMWare...
