Hi Dark, This is indeed good news. Depending on how Aeman is compiled it might run on Vista or windows 7. If it is a 16-bit application then it would run ok on 32-bit compatible versions of Vista/Windows 7 in 16-bit compatibility mode. If it is 16-bit and you have 64-bit Windows Vista/Windows 7 then it won't run. If it is 32-bit then it will run on all of the above. Make sense?
