There's Wine, WineX and CrossOver Wine. The later two have proprietary
extentions. WineX is free if you use Gentoo.

I've used Wine for Quicktime 6 and a few other things. Some friends of mine have
played games like Max Payne and Jedi Knight 2. There's alot of overhead in
emulation so you need atleast three times the requirements to play the same
piece of software in WineX as in just straight Windows.

Plus, buying Windows software isn't speaking very well with one's wallet so I
tend to avoid that.
