Due to the falling prices in gasoline around the United States, Jeremy White is now giving away his software, CrossOver, for free. On Tuesday the 28th, anyone visiting the official site will get redemption code for the software with full support. Despite clearly killing the estimations of the company, it gives people some pretty nifty soft courtesy of Bush himself. Now if only milk would get cheaper...

In July, CodeWeavers – whose software lets Mac OS X and Linux users run Windows programs without having to Microsoft for a Windows OS license – launched the Great American Lame Duck Presidential Challenge (lameduck.codeweavers.com) to encourage President Bush to make the most of his remaining days in office by accomplishing a major economic or political goal by January 20, 2009.

The goals focused on President Bush making specific positive accomplishments in areas such as the economy, home values, the stock market, the war on terror and other key issues. Specifically, one goal called for President Bush to help down bring average gasoline prices in the Twin Cities to $2.79 a gallon.

    I really don't think it really has anything to do with him, but hey, it's how the press release was worded, as well as how the challenge was made.

    I guess that's just how it plays out. either way, don't matter to me if he did it or not. I get a free bit of software. :3
