Could have been even more interesting if it didn't say for every American...
How will they know?
They will ask how you spell colour, flavour, and where your fanny is. Adam -- jabberid = quinophex@jabber.earth.li

But it doesn't say Americans-only - and it also says ... "On Tuesday, Oct. 28, 2008, any one visiting the CodeWeavers' Web site (www.codeweavers.com) will be given a deal code that will entitle them to one free copy of CodeWeavers' award-winning CrossOver software. Each copy comes complete with support." Peter.

But even if it did, and the site checks your IP address against a GeoIP database, all you have to do is visit Codeweavers via an anon proxy which is based in the US.

Here here rehab kiddies! Free nose sherbet to help get you back under the spell of the software barons! I guess it's better than buying a full Windows stack, but the long-term sustainable solution is to move to free/libre software.
