For those of you who need to run Windows programs on Linux for some reason
(gaming, professional, etc), I just noticed that Codeweavers is offering 1
year of support/updates for Crossover Linux (or Crossover Mac, for those
people) today only. If you don't know, Crossover is basically
Wine/Winetricks/PlayOnLinux, but has better support and is not free (in
either sense). I do believe they help improve Wine as well.

Their website: http://codeweavers.com/ <http://flock.codeweavers.com/>
Link to the giveaway: http://flock.codeweavers.com/
Press Release: http://www.codeweavers.com/about/general/press/20121029/

It works pretty well, they had a giveaway 4 years ago, when the price of
gas dropped below $3. I used it for a while to get Office working on my
home computer when I was working in an MS shop.
