SAINT PAUL, Minn. (July 28, 2010) On the heels of the highly-anticipated release of Wine 1.2, CodeWeavers, Inc. today announced the simultaneous release of CrossOver 9.1 and CrossOver Games 9.1 for both Mac and Linux.

Based in Saint Paul, Minn., CodeWeavers is a leading developer of software products that turn Mac OS X and Linux into Windows-compatible operating systems. CrossOver allows Windows software to be used on Mac and Linux PCs without the need for a Windows operating system license.
Available immediately, CrossOver 9.1 fully incorporates Wine 1.2, which the Wine community released on July 16th.

CodeWeavers is one of the founders and largest supporters of The Wine Project and sells CrossOver and other software as supported versions of Wine.
CrossOver Games 9.1 now supports StarCraft II as well as Star Trek Online, along with a wide range of improvements to many other games.

The regular CrossOver update includes improvements to all Microsoft Office versions, improvements in Quicken 2010 support, and a broad range of fixes that should help all applications.
"Wine 1.2 version featured the work of 328 people including a lot of hard work from our team making more than 23,000 separate patches over two years," said Jeremy White, CodeWeavers CEO. "CodeWeavers was proud to be a part of that effort, and we are thrilled to be able to bring that work to our customers with this release of CrossOver."
