I believe you can run with 98, although I'd recommend 2000 as a more robust minimum. I know there are people running it currently under Windows, but I don't know what proportion of them are running under the four different methods, or on what class of Windows they're doing it. The four methods: *) Cygwin *) VMWare Player *) Microsoft Virtual PC *) andLinux The last three options are probably the more robust. The first option is probably the best for oldest/least-memory sort of machines. > I did notice with a particular mapping software I am using, tiles from the > Teraserver quickly add up to more than 32K files in a directory.
