  Subject: [TRLog] Windows question


  Hi Gang,

  I have tried out the demo version of TRLog and like it very much.  =
Unfortunately, the computer on which I tried it out runs Windows 98, but =
the computer in my shack runs Windows NT version 4.0 (the 1996 version =
of NT).  I cannot swap the computers, so I am wondering whether anyone =
can suggest a solution that would allow me to run TRLog on my shack PC.

  Does anyone know whether used copies of Windows 95 or 98 are available =
for purchase?  I have no need for NT on my shack PC, since it is not =
connected to a network.

  I would think that to buy a new Windows 95 or 98 CD (not an upgrade) =
would be prohibitively expensive, even if they are still on the market.

  I do have an upgrade CD that upgrades Windows 3.1 or 95 to 98, but it =
will not do an NT to 98 upgrade. =20

  I tried running TRLog on the NT machine and, indeed, the CW is =
severely impaired.

  Seems like I'm stuck.  Am I better off giving up and looking for a =
Windows-based contest package?

  Thanks very much, Happy Holidays, & 73,
  Jeff
