Amazing! I've always been interested in their products but was never
able to justify the price. Free OTOH is a GOOD price!

Just finished installing it on my machine at work (runs Linux, will use
VMWare to run windows for the odd windows only app my company wants me
to run). Installing it right now on my WinXP laptop to run Fedora on the
road! SWEET!

Thanks for the heads up. TTYL
