I've taken this off-list with some of my replies, for those who wonder what 
the relevance is to digital modes: if you want to mix and match Windows / 
Linux / Solaris (Intel) applications you can run many operating systems 
simultaneously with VMware, there's and excellent VMware server which is 
free.

So you could install VMware server on your XP box, run the Windows VISTA rc2 
to test your apps, see if all will run on VISTA before committing to an 
upgrade.

Or you could run your fave Linux logger together with a Windows program for 
radio control (DXLabs for example). Or you could just see what all the Linux 
fans are raving about and decide for yourself whether they should be locked 
up :-)

My last post on this topic, now for some software coding..
