As we all know, CCS is one of the best if not THE best web app designer/coding program out there. AFAIK, it's one of the first! IMHO, one thing that would REALLY expand it's market would be having it Linux compatible. You don't even have to port CCS over to Linux. Simply have it run under Wine (the windows emulator program) and boom. Instant linux compatibilty! I've already submitted it to the CodeWeavers group which makes the program called Crossover Office. It's the commerical entity behind the wine development. I am in the process of becoming one of the testers of it now on CO.
I am currently able to use CCS in VMWare running Windows 2000. And I am able to install CCS under Wine. Unfortunately, CCS crashes upon startup in Wine.  Codeweavers has a system in place that would allow you (YesSoftware) to certify CCS under Wine/CrossOver Office. This url is: http://www.codeweavers.com/site/compatibility/certify/.
I hope that YesSoftware takes a look at this and considers becoming a Desktop Linux Certified application. This would REALLY help with those of us who are PHP developers. The ONLY reason I use VMWare with Windows 2000 inside it is because of CCS. I would MUCH prefer to be using CrossOver Office. Also, consider that Macromedia's Dreamweaver program is one of the many programs that CrossOver Office is capable of running.

I have been trying off and on for two years to get this working. My latest
attempt is with Suse Linux 9.2 using Crossover Office 4 from Codeweavers. I
have actually gotten CCS to load, and even open a project, but that is the
farthest I've gotten. CCS will crash after that. Has anybody made any
progress with this? How Microsoft dependent is CCS anyway? Everything else
sems to run great, including MS Access.
