Hi Ed, Here's another interesting fact about the 1.11.0 Apollo release, which is that neither version (bundled JRE + no bundled JRE) works on my 64-bit (AMD) Vista machine. The installation process runs fine but then when I try to start Apollo, either from the command-line or using the Windows Start menu, I get a dialog box that says it failed and something to the effect of "maybe an exception occurred in the main method." (I don't have the machine booted into Vista right now and I can't remember the exact text.) I discovered there's a simple workaround, which is to delete the apollo.vmoptions file in the main Apollo install directory; presumably the -Xmx setting was causing problems (even though it was set to way below the real memory size of the machine). Someone else here tried the install on a Windows XP machine and reported that it worked OK, and they didn't have to delete the apollo.vmoptions file. Anyway, you might want to add a note to the Windows install instructions to try removing apollo.vmoptions if it doesn't work out of the box (and I'd also be interested to hear if you're able to replicate the bug on another Vista machine.) Thanks,
Jonathan
