Hi, I get the digest version, so it takes me a bit of time to get your notes.
Personally, as far as demoing for the group on this one? Thank you but, - but I don't really know a whole lot about Windows, etc. I know just enough to squeek by. The last time I used another OS (beside MacOS) for development was waaay back in 1985, 86 or so, and that was for the Amiga. HA! (The first PC standard color video card, and it was used for game development) I only was just using Virtual PC (VPC) this year to run AutoCad to learn its new interface. Doing so, is not something I would recommend for general, everyday use, since I found it cuts down speedy work. But VPC did save me from having to buy yet another computer... to use AutoCad (and a Pentium at that!) However, I have been using VPC lately moreso for accessing Windows-only document formats on CDs/web. However, I am steering away from using it on the web, since I am a very concerned about getting PC viruses through the Windows port on my Mac. And then what do you do, in order to clean it out? Erase the entire hard drive??? I haven't really seen any vendors addressing this issue, how to protect/ secure Macs using Windows software. Do you have to get multiple PC, Mac versions of Nortons for each OS? Or does that get crazy? This is a topic of interest to me in regards to running VPC, how to maintain the thing. Hmmm Perhaps someone from MICROSOFT should come to the meeting to do a presentation on VPC??? Yours, Kay | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be May 25.
