And what is that other OS? Is it something that could run VRPC?
If so you could move on to RO 4.39 on an emulated SA machine, for
not all that much money...

No, he can't. He's already said that he's not prepared to spend even
£50 for RO 4.39 so suggesting he buy a copy of VRPC-ADJ will probably
give him a fatal infarction of the wallet :-(

The plain fact is that just short of two years ago, I purchased a Mac
Mini on the strength of claims on these newsgroups that VRPC had been
seen working on a Mac. Now, nearly two years later, a version is
released but it is only a beta version; further, it has generated yet
another thread of moaning about the difficulties of registration. It
doesn't inspire any confidence.
