As a small business, I need MS office & 2 other pieces of software that have no Linux versions. Rightly pissed off that I'll have to upgrade my main machines to Win 11 by Oct 25.

I'm guessing those pieces of software won't run in wine? Its pretty good these days.

I've never tried. Does it handle random applications or would they need to be on a list?

[–] eodur@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

it will attempt anything. just search around for anyone else whose tried the app. odds are pretty good.
