Hi Everyone,

My computer is an iMac 400 with 192 of Ram. I would appreciate hearing
from the Mac fraternity their thoughts on running Virtual PC on this
computer. I am sight impaired and currently run the Mac version of IBM"s
ViaVoice. The problem is it takes longer to correct the indecipherable
jargon and errors produced by the programme, than it does to write an
Email or letter with impaired vision and 2 finger typing.

They (IBM) have recently released a new version for the Windows
platform. It's features seem much superior to the current Mac version.

The question is:

Will my computer handle (at normal operating speed) the Windows version
of VV using Virtual PC???

I have tried making contact with IBM in the UK, but have received no
reply to my question:
When will the Mac version be updated???



Would appreciate some help,


Thank,


Stan Robinson.
