    Well, Andy's right...not exactly "my platform".

    Nearly every PC app will run under Virtual PC. If you're willing to put up with a slow, buggy environment. Microsoft actually came up with an OS that's worse than Windows XP--Virtual PC!

    Just kidding, Nik.

    Kind of.

    Actually, saying that I'm pointing out the truth in a playful way, would be more accurate.

    ;) , I guess...

    Just trying to be helpful:-)
    And just in case you ever change your mind - I'm not gonna disable this opportunity:D
    I'm also not sure is MS really the culprit for this app. According to MacBU site (http://maccentral.macworld.com/news/0302/19.macbu.php), they only acquired this product fairly recently, probably because Connectix simply could not provide a support for XP fast enough.

    Anyway, based on Pete's assessment (which I would really like to confirm by a couple more testcases), SE's upload speed (mind you, on the sluggish emulator!) was close/identical to the "native mac uploader", with the "tiny" difference being the first one worked and the latter didn'tdeal.gif . And I didn't even touch the optimization part yet :-) But I'm going to, hopefully this month, expecting 10..30% speed improvement.

    Man, is it windy or not lately? My Murano was almost blown off from 23-101 ramp yesterday morning, brr..

    Cheers!

    Interesting. I've never had a problem with the Mac Uploader.

    Windy? Oh, yeah. But getting warmer...

    .. for the obvious reason - don't do apples:-)
    But just in case you ever will - remember your fellow TO-er:-)

    Yup. Hopefully will be able to ride again soon. I got pretty picky and dont want to chill my arse off in these mornings' temperaturex (it's still kinda chilly at 7 am, you know:-)
