Office 2007 and gCDEmu on linux

Today i managed to install -easily- the Microsoft Office 2007, including the SP2 upgrade on my Linux machine because i had some picture resizing problems in OpenOffice beta. The OpenOffice 3.2 starts significally faster than 3.1 (1/3rd of time).
Also i found an alternative to daemon tools after some searching. It's named gCDEmu and it mounted even a nero image without any problems.
Installation of Office 2007 on linux took me way too less time that it does when i install it on Superior Systems running Windows ! I didn't expect that since linux it's not it's native environment. I used Crossover (a more advanced version of Wine). I also tried mediacoder 64bit but it won't run in my 64bit ubuntu. I'll have to try with mediacoder 32bit which will of course be more combatible since the x64 mc was in beta.
