Crossover effectiveness?
by infinice from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4TCGB)
I tried CodeWeaver's site but it's a dogs breakfast. Want a simple list of windows apps that'll run via CrossOver? Lotsa luck- i gave up. And forget a graduated rating system (A: runs perfectly, B: mostly runs..etc.).
I'm eager to cut my dependence on Windoze but, despite Linux pride in customizability, it's short on appearance tweaking apps (Clutter Clock, CinemaDrape, WindowsFX, CursorFX etc. etc.), so i'd be very dependent on CrossOver.
Can anybody tell me how well it works? I hear it's just a front-end to Wine, so shouldn't run much better than it (and it runs poorly). Is this correct?

Must also say- Deepin's site is a mess, with english being a distant afterthought (registration form for "International forum" (this is no english-only forum!) is in chinese!! That's depressing because if Deepin is easier, it's still Linux.
