The trial download proposed 2.1 Beta 2 and that's what I used. If you |
| 13 |
purchase, you get a 2.0 key (that does not work on 2.1!) but you should get |
| 14 |
the good key soon when they release 2.1 |
| 15 |
|

So I'd test 2.1, as it seems stable - I've got OS72 working with nfs in very |
| 17 |
little time. |
| 18 |
The only thing I could not get to work is the (real) cd rom. Parallels say |
| 19 |
someting about needing rights on the cdrom (chmod a+r) but it does not seem |
| 20 |
to work, anything I try I can only mount an iso file. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
However, given nfs access, it's not a problem, even more as os/2 is installed |
| 23 |
mostly because I have a lot of old files requiring os/2 programs and because |
| 24 |
I was ready to spend $50 to get old feelings back :) |

On gentoo I can use vmware on the rare cases where I have to fire up Windows. |

The problem with the world is stupidity. Not saying there should be a |
| 33 |
capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the |
| 34 |
safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself? |
