>> Will Microsoft's "portable" solution support the Windows 3.1 API on the Mac or only MFC classes? From what I saw in Atlanta last week, their cross platform solution will support the Windows API on the Macintosh. Realize though that their stuff did not seem to run smoothly (blasting through GrafPorts and such) and requires the highest end of PC systems to run on (Pentium, 32 Meg RAM, 450 Meg HD, up to two CD-ROM drives, and Windows NT). All the development work, including the debugging, happens on the NT machine tethered to the Macintosh. There will be more on this in the May issue of MacTech Magazine.
