Which is probably cost prohibitive. We need to buy a minimum of 6 more computers.

I agree. Maybe there's a misunderstanding about 64bit CPUs and 16bit apps here. 64bit Windows cannot run 16bit apps (DOS, FPW 2.6). However a 64bit cpu running 32bit Windows *can*. This probably means buying Windows seperately. -- Paul _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/CADwx0+Lnb_sWexw8kX=nVXHsMFAGbqxPnMoBs4aKSWfG7=o...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
