Hi All,


I noticed quite a few questions about VPC in this group lately. I
just wanted to mention that not so long ago, MS created a group
dedicated to VPC for Mac:

microsoft.public.mac.virtualpc

It's mnot an URL, it's the name fo the group. You can access it by
subscribing to the group in your new client or through a web interface
like the one Google offers (but I'm not sure they are relaying the group
yet... they need a little time).

Anyway, I would still suggest that you use a decent newsgroup client.
Entourage does it, but they are dedicated applications out there. I see
you are posting from Windows, you might want to consider applications
like Agent.

You can read it through web interface here:
http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?
The list is long, but you can scroll down to the "mac.virtualpc" list.

You'll be better off with a real newsgroup reader, for sure.
