I have found Virtual PC to be one of the most useful > offerings to have come out from Microsoft.
And another thing they bought rather than developed. I remember I was trying to get the go ahead to pay to upgrade our versions, when MS bought it and added it to the MSDN subscription. So thanks there. It is truly an excellent piece of kit at a reasonable price. Of course, having bought it they somehow managed to bloat it out and increase the memory consumption required ... Like they did with - erm - Visual Basic, the Delphi expertise behind .Net ... But then Borland have beaten them on those stakes. 120MB to load the Delphi 2005 IDE. Restart every hour to clear memory leaks. Urgh. Having used Delphi since the week it came out, I almost gave up there. If it weren't still the best compiler around... :-) Brian "Occasionally says something nice about Microsoft" ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
