Re: Anyone here use virtual PC?

2004-10-11 Thread Iain McShane 
Here's a link about a guy with about 50 OS's installed using VPC on a 
17" 'book.

http://www.kernelthread.com/mac/vpc/
I have not tried VPC 7 but have never had issues installing any OS on 
VPC 6 and unless someone gives me a G5 system, I guess I won't be 
needing VPC 7 anytime soon.

I remember using VPC 5 (I think)  which recognized my 3DFX card on a 
PM8600/250 so I could play Pandemonium using the card for hardware 
acceleration, glide drivers worked on Win98.

If you have VPC ready to ship but are waiting for SP2 to be released,
there's still no reason why you can't release the Windows 2000 
version
or the version without an OS.
There are many reasons. Think of the buyers (or even sellers) who 
don't
see the difference and purchase a Virtual PC version without an
operating system. Think of the buyers who purchase the Windows 2000
version. Why do they have to be punished running an older (MUCH older,
as a matter of fact) system? Will they receive XP upgrade later?

BUT ecen if I give you all of the above, now that VPC with XPSP2 is 
available, they still
aren't selling it with Win2k **or** without an OS.

Re: Large or small (was Pismo vs ibook?)

2004-10-06 Thread Iain McShane 
VST's support site said it was not supported in OS X, so I did not 
pursue it, I did try the Iomega drivers but got an installation error 
(ioware-mx-ppc-402.sit)

Error is,
"error creating folder
1008:9,-5000 access is denied"

I just have just bought a Pismo 400Mhz, installed 768M RAM and a 
60Gig Drive, it also came with a VST 6Gig drive bay, VST 250M Zip 
(does not work in OSX) and two batteries. Also had an Airport card 
installed.

Was in a cafe yesterday, used bluetooth and Nokia over GPRS to get 
mail, works great!

Ease of use, upgradeability, tough, expandability and has the ability 
to use current OS and peripherals.

I have now given up my G3 900Mhz iBook, gave it to the girlfriend to 
play the Sims.

Cheers,

Good grief, give it a break. You made your feelings known long ago.
You're free to think what you want, but nobody died and made you the
final authority. You obviously don't respect other people's 
opinions.
I'm beginning to wonder why we should care what you think.

I also think this has become something more than off-topic.  Like a 
higher level of sidetracking.  Mail still highlights these emails and 
groups them with "My Wallstreet and its Booting"  I no longer wish to 
discuss this, and I think we should all stop at the count of three.
