Been curious how Crossover works, just found out they have a Linux version too, installed trail version for Linux, it seems Sierra Chart works on Crossover very well, I don't really notice any major differences with Wine. Here are my thoughts and observations, hope I get the right picture: Crossover and Wine are done by the same develop team, if Crossover works on newer Macs, then Wine should too, they just don't want make it happen for marketing purpose? Each Crossover bottle is basically a segregated Wine environment? Crossover only works on M1 Macs as long as Apple supports Rosetta 2, because it doesn't run natively on M1? I visited an Apple Store yesterday and asked a tech there how Rosetta works, he seems quite confused, opened a browser and started to google 'Mac Rosetta' with misspelling of 'Rosetta'... hopeless. For Intel based Mac, I think, Linux+Wine still a way better option than Crossover, maybe? My only issue with Crossover was that I failed to install a program called "Microsoft Edge Webview2 Runtime", but that has nothing to do with Sierra Chart. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2022-07-05 05:42:04
