I just saw this linux distribution on distrowatch. They claim to be able to run all microsoft products. Interesting. http://www.imagicos.com/ http://www.imagicos.com/microsoft.html
No they don't. It says "almost every" on the home page and "most" on the "Microsoft" page.
Assuming they're talking about Wine, someone should tell them that they're wrong anyway. "quite a lot of entirely win32 applications", maybe. Almost certainly not "most".
Ooh, just spotted some interesting items on their "tested applications" list.
- DirectX
- DirectX 6
- DirectX 7
- DirectX 8
- DirectX 9
How about we just completely ignore these idiots?
Also: # Internet Explorer 5.0 and 5.5 # Internet Explorer 6.0
I've heard of some success with 6.0 (without crappy winedoors/ies4linux stuff), so I didn't comment.
# iPod Support in iTunes 4.0
Hmm, that seems unlikely
# Mac OS X # Mac OS X Audio Input Support
Well spotted, Austin!
Maybe they're talking about a VM, not Wine ... in which case, you'd have to get a copy of Windows, which defeats the purpose of being proud about their Windows app support.
