Ärende: TI v.9 or v.10
======================
Charles, good morning at home today.

 CS> I remember receiving a promotional offer from Acronis for TI 11 Home
 CS> version where they stated it supported Vista.  If it supports Vista, it
 CS> will also work with Win 7.  Windows 7 is Vista "Plus". Windows 7 uses
 CS> the same NTFS file structure and driver model as Vista.

	I keep getting notices from Acronis too and I never registered with them. How
they found me out is amazing.

 CS> As far as TI 9 and 10 supporting Vista, you'll have to test them. I'm
 CS> not sure they'll work since the NTFS file structure was changed in
 CS> Vista.  And neither Vista nor Windows 7 can be installed using FAT-32.

	I do not have any Vista left nor any TI v.9/10 to test, fine, I would not test
it anyway. My co-Acer user friend called yesterday as he could not get TI to
run, it would not see the USB HD. I had him run W-7 and format the drive to
FAT-32, than all was bliss. That is a funny !

 JP>> I have had problem lately doing some clones. I think that I have it
 JP>> pinned down to a defective small ERD of 3.5" for TI. I have two and
 JP>> trying the second one, it carried out to the end. The "defective" one
 JP>> would stop at different points in the cloning.

 CS> I've never used a floppy as an ERD for TI.  The reason is that TI can
 CS> not build a complete set of drivers and support files that will fit on a
 CS> 3.5" floppy.  Maybe if the floppy was an IBM EHD (2.88 MB) it would fit?
 CS>  Anyway, I always use a CD and so far no problems.

	Nor have I. I mismentioned this above, it is not a 3.5" floppy that I use, it
is a 3.5" CD, you know the small ones with square sides. They hold 50 MBs and
that is sufficient to TI. There are 48 MBs on them, I like them as they are
shirt-pocket size and also fit in the paunch that also the 2.5" USB HD.

 CS> A you ready to buy the lady upstairs a new iPAD?  :)

	Please stop, my sides are hurting ! Did you see in the papers that some
Chinese concern is thinking of suing Jobs for patent infringement ? Seems they
were out with their own xPad years ago. A bit larger and thicker too. It runs
Win-7 . . . I like this. No 8 hour battery on the Chinese machine but USB which
is missing on Jobs' pad. How backward can one be ?   ;-)
