CodeWeavers Giving Away CrossOver Tomorrow

Posted by Michael Larabel on October 27, 2008

Tomorrow for one-day only CodeWeavers will be giving away their CrossOver Office software for free. No, this isn't just the demo copy or some version bugged with limitations, but due to a challenge they started in July, they will be giving out copies of CrossOver Office and CrossOver Games for free for one day. Those receiving a free copy will also receive free technical support from CodeWeavers. This challenge dealt with seeing what George W. Bush would accomplish in his last year of US office, and due to the falling gas prices, one of their goals was met.

More on CodeWeaver's political challenge can be found on their Lame Duck page. The announcement regarding tomorrow's hand-out of free software can be read in this press release. CrossOver for Linux usually costs between $40 and $70 USD.
