Todays poll was late, they usually go up while I am at work and y'all are asleep, so I'm often the first poster. This time *I* was asleep.
It's funny, we got an Amiga at work recently, because I had the onerous task of writing an ap to ape an old Amiga ap by my bosses previous company. I remember Amiga caning anything Wintel threw at it, but now the resolution seems low, the whole look seems antiquated. Ebay often has cheap Amiga's and I'd been tempted to buy one for old times sake, but after that, it's kinda passed....

Is there any Amiga simulator (emulator?) out there? I've seen few emulators of ZX-Spectrum ATARI and Commodore 64 and it was kinda neat - you could play all the old games and stuff and even speed things up. I've even seen the schematic for the RS232 interface to connect the tape recorder and load the games you might still have on those tapes...

There's a couple. One is called ACE from memory. If you have trouble finding them I have them lurking on a CDR somewhere, just let me know.

I dunno where I got ACE from - WinUAE is the one I used.

My thoughts were that for a standard set of post-95 Windows OSs we'd have something like:
[ ] Win 95 (inc Win95a-Win95d, No IE, IE3, IE4+)
[ ] Win 98
[ ] Win98 SE
[ ] Win ME
[ ] Win NT <4
[ ] Win NT 4 (< SP3, < SP5, SP6+)
[ ] Win 2K (any SP)
[ ] Win XP
That's 21 different flavours! The differences between, say, 98 and 98SE, or 95b and 95c are probably too trivial to worry about (no idea personally) but I do remember the hassles with worrying about whether or not we could assume IE3 had been installed, or if the common controls library had been updated to 4.7 or 4.71.
Maybe the following needs to be given honourary OS status

What about 'early' Win95, and 'modern' Win95?

Ahem. Linux 6.x, 7, 7.1? Perhaps you are referring to Red Hat Linux? or Mandrake Linux? or XXX Linux?
A distribution is pretty much an operating system when it comes to Linux. Yes, the kernel and libc across the various distributions are the same (or pretty close). However, the rest of the system may be totally different. Some are SysV-ish, while others are BSD-ish. Some are none of the above.
If you want to make the list longer (and more correct), list each distribution separately.

I could have (and maybe should have) specified Kernel versions and not distro versions, but as far as I can tell, most commercial applications usually support Red Had specifically. There are many more variants of Linux than there are of Windows, and listing them all would take us all day. I was just sticking with the main-stream.

Our target platforms are- Win98
- Win98 SE
- WinME
- NT4 (at least SP3)
- Win2K (all flavours)
- WinXP
Till last spring we had to support Win95 as well, but I am glad we can drop it by now.

That looks pretty cool. I have just one question -
Pharos has been designed using the latest Object Oriented methods and written in Visual C++ to run under Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000
What are the latest object oriented methods ?

Marketing speak for "I don't understand this so I'll make something up"....
In reality...a bit of UML, a lot of head scratching and a good supply of lubrication.

Windows NT 4.0 and up. Of course, there is always a plan to "port it to various Unix flavours", but these plans never become reality. Not enough time, I'm afraid

Chris, I worked in a project,where I needed to work for example in diferentes Idioms, like English, Spanish, Portugesse, French, Russian, Arabic and Hebrew.
I need to say you that is not the same to work in English that in Hebrew. The code change a little under those Idioms.
I remember that I installed the OS in diffrent Idioms without understand that said in the Screens. For Lucky the Setup are the same in every Idiom.
Cheers!!!
