Tristan; Actually, Bill Gates DID sell most of his shares. He now owns 1% of Microsoft. The vast majority of the shares are owned by institutional investors such as pension funds, insurance companies ETF's, etc. Hell, I own Microsoft shares, but I don't use Windowsâ¦because it's horrible, which you can't even blame Gates for, anymore.

As far as I know, he's still a major shareholder. So your argument is meaningless.

Strictly, you need a license to run Windows 10 in a virtual machine, although if you don't connect to the internet it will probably work OK. Never actually tried it, though. IIRC, you can get free Vagrant boxes to run earlier versions of Windows, which might be an option as long as Fronimo doesn't have Windows 10 specific code.

In my experience Fronimo cannot work "directly" on a Linux platform using Wine. But an alternative way to make it work is to install in your Linux a Virtual Machine that let you run Windows: first thing to do is creating a Windows Virtual Machine. Second step is to install and run FRONIMO as normal. This is not a 100%"pure" Linux solution but it works well, printing procedures etc. included. Hope this can help. Gian Luca Lastraioli -------- Messaggio originale -------- Oggetto: [LUTE] Re: fronimo under wine? Da: Tristan von Neumann A: [6][7]lute@cs.dartmouth.edu CC: I agree. I would buy Fronimo if it worked properly under Linux. I had trouble in the demo version. Printing to file didn't work (blank pages though the preview is visible. Is this deliberate?). That's sad because I have some fronimo files from the yahoo group I would have loved to print. Also I would love to contribute to Sarge's archive. On 10.08.20 17:54, Frank A.

It's only fronimo that is holding me back. Has anyone succeeded in running fronimo in linux under wine? I have ubuntu 20.04 and wine 5.0. I can install fronimo OK, but firing up a fronimo file, the first page is blank. Possibly there are configuration options under wine that would make fronimo work.
