Have managed to run just about any software on the various versions
of VPC, especially 5 and 6. Specifically, the schlock put out by the
mexican banks and government and (non schlock) accounting software
put out by a small softworks down here in Mexico. Has also been
useful for believe it or not accessing Mexican bank and the Mexican
IRS webpages that don't seem to fly under Mac browsers.
So it is definitely worth a try.
My only failure was a piece of software put out by a large company
that is a viewer for maps of Mexico city. It's copy protection scheme
apparently has a problem with the v.6.x VPC API implementation. So I
bought a pirate copy. (already own a legal copy, and the publisher
refused to make it work). Not sure if the v. 7.x VPC implementation
works.
Things will be a bit slower, so it depends as to how intense your
windows needs will be.
I'd take a shot at it.
Never mind the tech support fussing. If all he's looking for is virii
and network issues, you are not the droid he is looking for.
