I should have started a new thread for my question - see below - instead of tagging it on to an existing one. Here it , with apologies: I've just installed OProW on a Mac running Windows XP via VM Fusion emulation and all the indications are that it is going to work as intended. The only disappointment, apart from losing the advantages of the RISC OS system like middle button menu access, is the crude font screen display ie lack of anti-aliasing. Would it be any better with Windows 7? Regards Jack -- Jack Evans Bristol UK mailto:jack@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or subscribe goto: //www.freelists.org/list/davidpilling
