As I've alluded in earlier posts, I'm interested in getting VirtualPC
for my Mac, mostly to run a Chinese<->English translation program. I
did in fact purchase VirtualPC, and I see a sentence in the ReadMe that
looks ominous:
"Virtual PC is available in English, French, German, Japanese, and
Swedish."
This may suggest that it does not include whatever Chinese-language
support Windows provides.
Do any of you have any experience with Chinese work under VirtualPC? Do
any of you have any idea whether Microshaft's Chinese-language support
for Windows 2000 Professional is available for download somewhere?
Thanks, everybody!

An alternative explanation is that this only applies to VirtualPC itself, and Chinese-language application support is strictly a function of the Windows OS you install under it. -- (Preferably reply to the newsgroup, please.

The latter is the correct explanation. VPC doesn't restrict Windows functionality, other than its speed of execution. Davoud -- usenet *at* davidillig dawt com
