Crossover Office 1.2 isn't a suite of office applications that handles MS office formats like Open Office - it is MS office. Or atleast it enables you to run office 97, 2000 (word, excel. powerpoint, outlook, but not access), internet explorer, quicken, visio, and lotus notes as if you were using windows. You actaully install it on your Linux box.
It is good. I've never had it crash either. Martin > Hate to point this out, but two things. > OpenOffice.org can already handle Word & Excel. > CxOffice doesn't (yet) handle Access.
