Bordeaux 1.8 was tested against Wine 1.1.23 and for best results, we suggest Wine 1.1.23 be used. We have i386 and x86_64 deb's, rpm's and sh installers that have been tested on a wide variety of Linux distributions.

The cost of Bordeaux 1.8 is $20.00. Anyone who has purchased Bordeaux in the past six months is entitled to a free upgrade. Bordeaux comes with six months of upgrades and support and of course a 30-day money back guarantee.
