Dear Mike,
what about all us old folks using TOPSPIN 1.3 (cos of our aged hardware). Are we going to have to keep legacy versions of WinXP on our PCs?
Regards Jim Bloxsidge.

Subject: RE: XWinNMR on VISTA.
Dear Bob, Dear Fellow BUM Members,
XWIN-NMR doesn't work under VISTA, there's more to this than just the
X-server. Also, all TopSpin versions up TopSpin2.0 with all its patches
do not work under VISTA. We are, however, currently testing an alpha
version of TopSpin2.1 under VISTA. This version will be our first
software release for VISTA. Please, don't ask me at this stage when
TopSpin2.1 will be ready for a release. We're trying to get it out as
soon as possible, but it's too early for an announement.
With respect to TopSpin on a Mac, again there's no official release for
this. Rene Kanters' approach of running the Mac using
Parallels virtualization seems to work, but there's no support from us
for this at this stage. First, we have to get VISTA going :-)
Best wishes, Mike !

Subject: XWinNMR on VISTA.
Hello everyone,
One of my users recently purchased a new computer with Windows VISTA
installed.
He tried to install XWinNMR on his computer but has been unsuccessful.
One of the problems was that the version of EXCEED that ships with
XWinNMR is not VISTA compliant. So I suggested he try another Xwindow
application, and he installed the latest version of X-Win32 that does
work with VISTA.
Now the Xwindows side of things works, but he still cannot get XWinNMR
to work.
Has anyone managed to get XWinNMR to work on VISTA? I'm at a loss here
because I have not yet touched VISTA at all.
(I was hoping we could put this off a while longer, but it is looking
like we may soon be forced to convert our XWinNMR floating licenses to
TOPSPIN as more of our users move on the VISTA.)
On a similar note, has anyone been able to get TOPSPIN to work on a Mac?
I figure it is just a matter of time before someone asks me about that.
Thanks,
Bob.
