That's interesting. All I have to add is that I haven't had any
problems using Xy4 under W2K/VMware. If the problems with W2K related
to full screen, that would never have been an issue for me, as I
haven't used full screen since Win 3. I haven't tested Xy3. I would
note Kari's suggestion that his solution of VPC 2007/Win 3.1 is
required for some quite old versions of NotaBene. I have been
avoiding that path from laziness, but I do mean to try it one of
these days, as he recommends it so highly.
There was quite a bit of discussion on the list about Xy's
difficulties with Win2k in its early days. It's one of the reasons I
stayed with Win 98 until XP.
Btw, I'm using Xywrite 3+, not Xy 4 -- but that shouldn't make any
difference to how well it runs on Win 2k, should it?
