ugh. Sorry if I sent a blank message by mistake - tired.
I guess I should add a "common-sense" statement to my earlier comments. If
Omega REsearch released a version of TS recompiled specifically for Linux
then of course its possible - duh :)
Oh, and those emulators I spoke of...just for those that don't know. An
emulator will "fake" an application into thinking it's running on it's
natural operating system. The emulator is compiled to run on a specific OS
such as Linux. The emulator, in this example a windows 95 emulator, will
then run the application in question inside the emulator program. Every
windows API call the application makes the emulator intercepts and handles
appropriately - typically converting it to the OS the computer is running
(ie LInux). Because it is constantly translating these API calls it can
execute MUCH MUCH slower than a box running Windows 95.
