Re: Various Problems On The Site And On My PC ...sigh
-----------------------------------
I've been using Microsoft's "Virtual PC" software for the same thing... and also because I've got a bizaare affection for my ancient old DOS 3D rendering software "Imagine" and can't help hauling it out for occasional use.  There are still some things I can do with it when editing object meshes that are just too fiddly when using 3D Studio MAX.

As for Vista, my PC has been working fairly reliably - give or take an unhappy ATI RAEDON card - under XP for 4 years now.  I'm not gonna tamper with that.  Especially as I have multiple XP boot partitions set up. One for games, one for CGI, and my main one for net and entertaiment use.  Add to that my old Amiga emulator, my even older Atari 8-bit emulator, and my incredibly ancient PDP-11, IBM 360 and VAX emulators, the last thing I need is [i]another[/i] OS!

Then of course there is MAME and all the console emulators as well.  Sheesh.

Makes you wonder how people got by without computers, though.
