While I agree with you Dan that its nice that he commends the site (which is rather nice) I think there is another big takeaway here. I think the experience that is documented here is probably rather typical. Some success with annoying bugs and some utter failure. I'm pretty certain with a bit of effort and tweaking his applications could run nigh flawlessly. I dream of a day when it just works out of the box.
Perhaps we should write to the author and have him try crossover on day 6? :)
