[RTTY] Using Windows Contesting Software on a Mac

Just checking to see if anyone with an Intel powered Mac (or Linux computer)
has tried running some of the Windows based RTTY and contest logging/scoring
applications using the CrossOver application by Codeweavers?

CrossOver Mac <http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxmac/>
CrossOver Differentiators <http://www.codeweavers.com/products/differences/>

The above link indicates CrossOver runs some Windows applications very well,
some so-so, and some not at all.  I checked the compatibly list at the
CrossOver web page and none of the applications discussed on this reflector
were mentioned.  

The reason for asking is I have a new Apple iMac 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
<http://www.qsl.net/aa5vu/iMac-07.jpg> computer in the shack and the
CrossOver Mac application got my attention as a tool to test drive some of
the PC contesting software.  FYI, the new iMac described at
<http://www.apple.com/imac/specs.html> is awesome.
