Subject: Re: Experience with Cedega on Linux OSes
Cedega only works for a small handfull of titles. It doesn't work at all or
only very poorly for the vast majority of titles out there. If you like one
of the Transgaming "supported" titles then it might be worth the money to
you. I personally play World of Warcraft and Warcraft III with Cedega and
both run just as they do in Windows (with a little slowdown here and there).
It was worth the $15 minimum for me to get those two games working under
Linux. Other games that work are listed in the games database at the
transgaming.org <http://transgaming.org> site. Don't be surprised if what
you want to play doesn't work though. Most of the games have flaws that make
them unplayable (like an invisible cursor or bad framerate).
