is anyone a beta tester for this? I would be really interested in using this product but it appears the site hasn't been updated for a while now: -

any thoughts?

Wow, that looks pretty cool. I've played around with DarWine a little bit under OS X, but I couldn't really get it working correctly, but it looks like this could be really cool.

MS-Office should work as a complete program.

http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/name/

under MS-Office and not Office.

Many more programs not on the first list also. =Your Win program may work, check the list or try it out for yourself.

One neat thing about this program is that your Mac will now recognize WIn type files. =Good for downloads etc.
