I've heard >that the VPC that was demo'ed at MacWorld NY was a real step forward.
I get into AudioGalaxy with VPC 4.0.2 running Windows 98, and it seems to work pretty well. A little pokey on mg G4/400 with a gig of RAM, but servicable. VPC with Windows 98 is about $170-180 from most retailers/online vendors. At Macworld NY, they demoed a new beta version of VPC running under OS X 10.1. I haven't downloaded the "test drive" yet, but some of the speedup is no doubt due to improvements in OS X itself. We'll see... Another Macintosh-native music/file sharing option is Aimster. It's in beta and works alright. http://www.aimster.com/mac/ Seth. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
