Well, goodness, *everything* works in Windows. That's why
I like it.** :-)

We should have a contest. A case of Fort Collin's own Fat Tire
for anyone who can write clear directions for installing an
IDL Virtual Machine on three platforms: WINDOWS (I'll take
this), LINUX, and MACINTOSH, and make it run an arbitrary
IDL save file.

Here are the criteria. (1) My wife has to follow the
instructions. (2) My wife does NOT have administrator
privileges on her machine (for obvious reasons).

Have a go! If you send a picture with your entry, I'll
even arrange to make you famous for a week. ;-)

Cheers,

David
