Seeing the question about VPC on a Pismo (not I don't have the answer) made me think about the worrying future of PC compatibility on a Mac.
And I mean PC, not Windoze.
Connectix always strived to making VPC a PC emulator and not a Windoze
emulator, but how long will it be until Micro$oft integrates Windoze into the
emulator (sort of the way that Insignia did with SoftWindows) ?!
If they drive such hard deals on the PCs when it comes to the vendors selling PCs with Windoze, are they ever gonna allow a Mac user to install Linux on VPC 7 on a Mac ???
FWB killed SoftPC/SoftWindows, Lisemore (BLPE) has disappeared off the face of the earth. Hardware solutions seem to have died out.
Yet again we're in the hands of Bill, and I'm not even going to get into the Office situation...
