Dave,
Gerry's right, and it runs a bit better then Microsofts. Just keep in mind
it needs a souped up machine. 1 gig to run XP translates into at least 2
gigs for a decent XP box and anything else. 4 gigs minimum, but you can
fine tune the memory per machine requirements. It does work great though.
