CODEWEAVERS RELEASES CROSSOVER 7.0

New edition features support for Microsoft Office 2007, Outlook 2007,
Quicken 2007 and Adobe CS2 product lines; coincides with release of Wine 1.0

SAINT PAUL, Minn. (June 17, 2008) - CodeWeavers, Inc., a leading developer
of software products that transform Mac OS X and Linux into
Windows-compatible operating systems, today announced the release of
CrossOver Mac 7.0 and CrossOver Linux 7.0, both available for purchase
immediately.

Both version of CrossOver 7.0 will include support for Microsoft Office
2007 (including Outlook 2007), newer versions of Quicken, and the Adobe CS
and CS2 line of products, particularly Photoshop.

"We're excited to offer Mac and Linux users significantly more supported
applications," said Jeremy White, CodeWeavers' chief executive officer. "We
think that Mac users, especially those in corporate settings, will enjoy
having native Outlook 2007 support, so they can calendar and fit into the
corporate IT structure just like all those other Exchange users. The same
is true for our Linux customers, who will welcome the availability of the
newer Adobe applications. Linux versions for these Adobe applications are
currently unavailable."

Another major benefit of 7.0 is that it includes many of the elements of
the hotly anticipated release of Wine 1.0, which was also released today.
"CrossOver 7.0 contains many of the fixes that Wine 1.0 has, and will give
users a great taste of what of the new version of Wine is capable of,"
added White "We really feel that 1.0 will be a major step toward making
Wine an application that will run all Windows applications, and we're
excited for its release."

One of the areas of greatest enhancement in Wine lies in its significantly
enhanced support for ActiveX controls within Internet Explorer. "A
recurring theme we hear is the ability to use CrossOver to access Active-X
intensive web pages," said White. "This upgrade takes a giant step forward
by expanding the websites that can be used on a Linux or Mac system."

CrossOver Mac 7.0 Available in Standard and Pro Editions With this release,
CrossOver Mac will now be offered in two versions – Standard and Pro.
The Professional version features a longer support period, as well as a
complimentary copy of CodeWeavers' CrossOver Games, a recently released
application that runs many popular Windows games such as World of Warcraft,
Guild Wars, EVE Online, Call of Duty 2, Team Fortress 2, and most Steam
games. CrossOver LinuxPro customers will receive the same offer.

Pricing and Availability

CrossOver Mac Standard is priced at $39.95, and is a download-only product.
CrossOver Mac Pro is priced at $69.95, and can be delivered with an
optional CD. CrossOver Linux Standard and Pro mirrors that pricing. All
CrossOver products are significantly less expensive than the cost of a
Windows license, allowing CodeWeavers users to economically and legally
circumvent the need for Windows.

The updated versions of CrossOver for Mac and Linux are available online at
www.codeweavers.com and in many retail outlets in North America, via
distribution through Navarre, Douglas Stewart Co., Atlantia, and others.
