John, >> I hear the whirlwind -- do you own a Mac? Yes, I have one of the new G3 Mini-Towers and will not go back to the IBM PC clonemare! So far Virtual PC runs all the Windows95 apps that I have loaded, including the 3D Mapping software that killed my old machine. I never knew what I was missing and would recommend it to anyone; it is everything that a PC should be. After seeing Virtual PC running Windows95 so well it is even more obvious that the Java wave is only going to gain momentum. Taking off my jackass overcoat long enough to be truly objective, the only software that will not be written in something like Java, five years from now, will be really specialized software like that which runs on an SGI/Cray. With the processor speeds still increasing and 3D rendering cards becoming affordable, the question of performance becomes less important. Tomorrow's general application programmer should not write programs for Windows or the Mac, they should write it for a cross-platform language. "Own a Mac, invest in PC's". Check out the G3 systems sometime they are excellent machines. Cheers, Norm
