My dad has a Fedora 9 box and a Windows 2000 box. His Windows 2000 box has dual PIII 750 mhz processors. This box has a gig of ram, but it's PC100 ram. TurboTax will not work on Windows 2000 anymore. Will WINE support TurboTax? How about Crossover Linux?
Windows XP is a pain in the tushy because support officially ended yesterday and worse than that it still costs the same that it did when it first came out. Has Microsoft heard of depreciation? His Linux box is comparable to mine, an Intel D845PEBT2 Pentium 4 system. I have Windows XP upgrade sitting on the shelf that I could use to build a virtual machine I suppose... wish I didn't have to go through the blankety blank activation. It is actually installed on a 500 mhz machine, but that machine hasn't been turned on for a very long time. I'd like a solution that doesn't involve Microsoft Windows at all, but short of Intuit releasing a Linux version of TurboTax that might not be possible. A solution that involves WINE or a Linux version of TurboTax is preferable, but if I have to set up a Windows XP VM I have to. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
