Thanks for that write up Frank.
I already have the almost free RO 4.02 disk... I used that to set up
RPCEmu Spoon on the XP machine, which I then upgraded to 4.39 (Being a
Select subscriber).
If I try it out later (Bit busy ATM) it would be on a desktop machine, so
maybe the display would be a bit better.
If I do the deed I'll let you know about that aspect.
With regard to your 9th meeting... I live way down on the South coast in
Bournemouth... nuff said methinks. ;-)
Cheers
Dave
