Re: Playing wmv files



Hi Fabien,
        I know this is a little off topic but I'd just like to point out
that
Crossover Office works great on AMD64. You can run Internet
Explorer,Media Player, Photoshop etc, etc no problems. There is no need
to chroot it just runs. 

(I know its not free software in any sense of the word. )
