Bordeaux is a commercial User Interface to the Wine software that allows Linux systems to run Windows software. The Bordeaux Technology Group distributes this software and provides professional support to companies and individuals running Windows apps on Linux (and soon FreeBSD). I interviewed Tom Wickline to get some details and find out what they're up to now.

Well, I didn't try Wine-Doors (yet, I will try it when I have some free time). I tried PlayOnLinux a few weeks ago for fun, and although it did look nice and has potential, most of the scripts are french, or poorly designed(because of them being community mantained I think). With some work on the quality of scripts, I think it would be really great. For now, I'm sticking to Cedega, the only thing on Linux so far that can run games on my ATI card.
That is because 90% of 3D games that should run on Wine don't run on ATi cards.(The problem is with a new patch sometime before the 1.0 release) but Cedega, having merged from an old version of Wine, doesn't have that patch, meaning I can still run some games on Linux.
Wierdly enough, PlayOnLinux's interface looks similar to Cedega's..
