Re: Xy on Mac revisited-Parallel Universe



Jordan has a point. And a few of us have been using VPC to run XyWrite on
a Mac, right? And at least one or two out there besides me are not using
Windows but plain old DOS (cut out the middleman)? I mostly keep my weird
OS game a secret, but once I couldn't resist freaking out a friend by
putting DOS into full-screen mode on my PowerBook G4, so that all signs of
Apple-ness vanished from the LCD. All that blackness, and the little "C"
prompt in the corner... waiting.

Hats off to Lisa. She's the first "Parallels" victor in this
forum, it seems. And if her Mac is one of the new ones with an Intel
processor, the combination would also would make her a pioneer.
