   www.askwoody.com Woody Leonhard's Ask Woody website has lots of con comments   
   on it, both from Him and those who make comments to His articles.   
   He writes Articles on www.infoworld.com and has links to those articles on   
   His Ask Woody page.   
      
   I have heard that to run 16 bit software on WINTEN it has to be ran in a VM
