I recieved the Bridgemaster level 2-4 as a gift from BIN after having an article published. But I don't have windows installed. However, I am able to use wine with BBO, so I thought it would be easy to install BridgeMaster under wine as well.

But nooo - the cdrom is required - and the dreadful cdrom check prevents me from using it under Linux with wine.

Is there any - ANY - way around this? I'd really like to try this out... (I have the codes, reciept and everything if you wonder).

If you send me an e-mail (fred@bridgebase.com) I can provide you with a link that you can use to download the (Windows) setup program.
