Edgar,
Thanks for the word, there, about that interesting software.
I don't know if (PC) hardware "vintage" would matter, but I still have "Home"
and "Pro" versions of Win-XP running on a couple of machines, and XP will run
WIN 3.1 apps and legacy DOS software.
BTW, MicroSoft is still supporting XP (to end this Summer, I think).
And, BTW..., is your software "out there" on the web somewhere?
(I've also got modern machines, with XP on interchangeable hds which can be
mounted).
I'm not sure, but I think Merle is Mac based. She'll chime-in if this strikes
a chord with her.
Did you do any weaving, Edgar?, and was that on Morningside Heights? Sorry we
missed meeting in NYC... or up on Slide Mountain. If you ever attended the
Open-House nights at the Observatory at Columbia, that was me hosting the crowd
and pointing the telescope around for about eight years under the big green
dome on Pupin.
Did we cross paths in Da Liu's t'ai chi classes?
