> VMware, which is not free software

Actually there are two free versions, which can both create VMs:
VMware Player3 and VMware Server. And I'd evaluate them, too --
I'd endeavor to evaluate every possibility. We've been very
successful using all-free adjuncts to perform extended XyWrite
tasks. I agree that Acrobat Pro is a near-must; but Ghostscript
is very robust and, as an app ported from Unix, has total
command-line control -- an area where Adobe products are very
deficient, but which is perfectly suited to XyWrite, allowing
you to control every aspect of a hands-off XyWrite-Ghostscript
interface.

Let's face it: Adobe makes a big tree of fantastic products,
but there's no escaping that they are fantastically expensive,
each and every one. It hurts -- and what really hurts is that
in a couple of cases, you simply need it. Life without
Photoshop would be no life at all.
