Kids linux compatibility question

i read this


Quote:
Compatibility: The system is fully compatible with all 32-bit applications. For instance, the demo version of CrossOver®Office works perfectly and enables the use of Microsoft® Windows® applications.

does this mean that ALL apps made to run on windows can be made to run on linux with the aid of this "crossover" thing.

thanx

Actually it runs quite a bit more software than just office. (eg, photoshop, visio...there are more). Poke around the site and you can see the amount of software it actually runs
