i've been doing this for over 2 years now. when i was on my windows based laptop - it was vmware. now i'm using a powerbook, i'm doing exactly the same thing under virtual pc. i can allocate a 4-16GB hard drive image for each platform - and, develop away without any concern. moving between laptop + desktop = just copy the vmware. i've had a number of sub-contractors who just get stuck before they can do any development just because they dont know how to install the tools. this was one of the reasons why i used a vm for this - just ship them a DVD with a harddrive image = ready for development. -- // Aaron Ardiri -- For information on using the PalmSource Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
