Linux on iPhone!

After a brief test, we deliver links and a short video. It's worth trying. Remember to make backups because there is no guarantee.

Beginners refrain, even though it looks simple enough.

Full CrossOver for free!

October 28, 2008 · Posted in Software , Download · Comments closed

Run Windows applications on Linux & Mac OSX is often very welcome ... CrossOver from CodeWeavers uses Wine for this and offers its software free for 24 h and 48 h ...!

We could put in doubt the validity of this type of application ... so much energy for the free shot and want to make Windows applications certe ... but do not forget the games too
