I'm hearing that we should see an unsupported build of CrossOver Office as well in the near future. Also, before anybody asks, yes you can run the install-crossover-pcbsdgames*.sh installer on vanilla FreeBSD. Since PC-BSD isn't a fork, the only thing you need to ensure, is that if you are on FreeBSD 6.3, you must apply the Wine patch at http://wiki.freebsd.org/Wine. Users on FreeBSD 7.0 or higher do not need this patch applied. -- Kris Moore PC-BSD Software http://www.pcbsd.com
