WinRash... Cool idea!
I manage a small network, appx 35 computers on a few different MS OS's.
Off the top of my head: XP Pro, 2000 pro, 2000 serv, 2000 adv serv, nt4
serv, 95 & 98.
I will commit to helping wine by running this on as many as I can if
Dmitry apologizes to us, and especially to Thomas, for his rude attacks
on our list.
Sincerely,
Royce Mitchell III
