If you are interested, we have written in detail about how to use Wine in Ubuntu. Do read it to learn more about how to run Windows software on Linux. The CodeWeavers team made a very big promise in the year to deliver support for Microsoft Office on the Mac and Linux platforms. Though it took them almost 4 years to come up with CrossOver 16, but I guess the wait was worth it.
It is merged with the latest Wine 2. You can also get a free day trial. By buying a copy of CrossOver you are, in effect, helping the development of Wine — which is pretty sweet, right?
And with one click installation and the Office support, it sounds great. I never like to read about paid-for software on Linux. It makes me feel uneasy. Please log in again. The login page will open in a new tab. After logging in you can close it and return to this page.
