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 Windows…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.

       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.

       Subject: [LUTE] Ris: Re: fronimo under wine?
           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.

             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.

       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.
     Any success, anyone?
