Thanks, I'm considering that option.<br><br>My experiences with virtual machines is with microsoft's system so I<br>can run various demos for MS-CRM. The result is very, very slow on a<br>dual processor with 4gb of memory.
<br><br>However, I have noticed the topic come up a lot with Delphi developers<br>and will check it out. Thanks.<br><br>Steve<br><br>On 13/07/07, Kyley Harris <<a href="mailto:kyleyharris@gmail.com">kyleyharris@gmail.com
