Thanks for the info, Norman. I know those of us engaging in a topic some on this list deem un-QL, risk a public spanking at the next "QL is xx". However, as long as the QL is at the heart of the discussion, I believe we may just wriggle out of chastisement if not censure.. On 16/01/2016

Evening Dilwyn, Ah yes, I do recall something about your past problems with Windows! I wasn't aware you had Packard Bell kit though, Curry's "own brand" stuff, or junk as we IT professionals know it. I had one of those briefly some years back. Took it back to PC World as unfit for purpose and

Hi, I use QPC2, QPC1 (via DOSBOX), Qemulator and under Wine and SMSQmulator under Java, on Linux. I dumped Windows years ago, even Autocad works under Wine, though I am struggling with Solidworks 2014, but I told there solution around this. I do not think Windows is a viable solution now,
