      Hi! Björn,              On 22/08/2015 6:35 AM, you wrote:               BF> Have you considered using Win XP or similar in a virtual box?

For a number of reasons, I       deemed XP as inappropriate as a 'next evolution'.              I run two different copies of XP in VMs already, only one of which has my       limited trust to run _a_ BATch file. The batch had to be dumbed-down for it       to run in XP, and only in that XP. It does not execute reliably in the other       XP, if at all.              Since my current main node relies heavily on batches, I would *not* consider       XP as a Good Thing(tm) for it. Did you try that 'for example' FREQ responder       batch thingy I sent you?              The next evolution will be based on my linux VM (~640/1384).              Cheers,       Paul.              --- Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/31.7.0        * Origin: Paul's other Linux vBox - Maryborough, Qld, OZ (3:640/1384)    |
