Re: Getting the right W2K version



I havent tried Parallels with Win2K, but it works beautifully with Windows 7 on my MacBook Pro.

Nota Bene (latest beta) runs very smoothly, and when I copied my standard XyWrite 4 directory into
its virtual drive C, that ran pretty much as expected. Its been so long since I printed from Xy4,
though, that I cant remember all the ins and outs.  Parallels makes any printer connected to the
Mac available as though it were a Windows printer, but it apparently doesnt make this immediately
available to a DOS window.
