Virus alert!!
Wingnut:
I run SeriesLandRover 3rd Edition on 4StarPetrol. It has to be booted all the time and it crashes everywhere. I'd like to upgrade to 110Defender but CurrentOverdraft and BankManager2004 won't support it :!: :D :!:

They will with Microsoft Virtual PC software.

Thats quite true however as virtual PC is pretty slow and only runs on a G5 with any real gusto I did not mention it. In fact Mac OS is the only OS on which allows you to run 10 OSes at the same if you so wished.
1) BSD Unix
2) OSX
3) OS9 in classic mode
4) Windows 98,ME,XP, Server 2000, Server 2003, Linux, OS2 all in Virtual PC.
So 10 in all on one machine, nice if you need it.
Incedentally Virtual PC was originally made by a company called Connectix but was purchased from them by Microsoft last year beacuse it was so good. There is even a windows version, which allows you to run mutliple version of windows OSes at the same time, like the Mac version.
Interesting stuff if you like this kind of thing!!

Erm... VMWare is the same sort of thing (computer emulation) and runs happily on linux and windows, and probably mac OS for that matter....

Hi
Good pint, I know tis product and it's great stuff but it does not run on Mac OS or allow ou to run MacOS so what I should have said is that it is the only one that allows you to run all the Virtual OSes and Mac OS as well.
