>Much as I hate to admit it: Will see ya there… Welcome aboard. 🙂 FWIW- Microsoft has dropped their requirement that Windows 95 labeled programs needs to run on NT (like they had origionally stated). I think that's pretty typical of them, and thought you all might be interested in letting MS know that NT support of your favorite programs is a very good thing. Adobe, for example, says Photoshop will run on NT, but it's not a true port. Just a win32 program. Some parts are multithreaded but not everything. (important in dual processor systems.) Alpha and other RISC support was also not planned. Just Win95. (As I understand my discussions from Adobe tech support.) Interested parties may want to check it out. BTW Jack, NT comes on CD. 🙂 The NT install medium of choice. It's something like 80MB. 🙂 (32bit code is bigger than 16 in both disk and memory requirements) Good thing hd prices are falling like a rock.
