Remember, GTM doesn't run on Mac - only Cache. And there's no CPRS replacement, yet, so don't count on somebody writing a Cocoa/Carbon app on Mac instead of Mono/Mozilla for *nix (to be used everywhere else). I write with XCode (Mac) and that's not nearly as RAD and cross-platform as Mono or Mozilla. I'd put $2 into Mono development over XCode any day.
VPC works fine if the system is beefy enough. I recommend building up a Windows Terminal Server and using Remote Desktop (there's a native Microsoft RDC client) to connect and utilize server resources. That would save resources from being used locally for the simple need of touching CPRS. Unfortunately I can't convince my wife that the 30" flat panel on my G5 is a "need" and not a dream. *drool* David Sommers, Architect | Dialog Medical -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jae kim Sent: Thursday, August 11, 2005 9:19 PM To: hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Hardhats-members] Server Message Block (SMB) Rusty, Even with VirtualPC licenses, the overhead will be too heavy. Maybe having all Mac network (Mac in each office) and build a complete Mac-VistA system managed by NetInfo. New GUI could be created with Mac's Interface Builder for Macintosh graphics. That means no need for Windows, yes!
