Keith, thanks for your thoughts on this, I appreciate it. It seems from what you say that Soft Windows will do what I want. >Downloading from the web on the Mac side to port across has not worked with >programmes for me, although it works for files. I don't think I will need this. >If you have a faster machine than 90MHz your experience will be better but >then you have probably become used to your new speed and won't enjoy >running at a third of its capacity. I have an 8600/200 which is pretty fast. Anything running slow is always annoying, but I don't think this will be a problem either as I am only going to use it occasionally for viewing web pages, and if it saves me buying a PC, then who cares! >Although I am registered with Insignia I haven't heard that version 5.0 is >available. So maybe customer support is not that splendid. Possibly, but version 5.0 is now available. Thanks again. -- Dave Porter - dave@wcbs.demon.co.uk - http://www.wcbs.demon.co.uk From Northumberland ... web design service now available.
