Hi Lynn,<br><br>Ah, sorry. I didn't understand your question. <br><br>Unfortunately, I'm not a torrent user, so I can't advise you. Hopefully by now things have worked themselves out.<br><br>Good luck,<br><br>Greg KO6TH<br><br><br>> Date: Fri, 22 Jan 2010 07:04:33 -0500<br>> From: ldeffenb@homeside.to<br>> To: aprssig@tapr.org<br>> Subject: Re: [aprssig] Replacement for UI-View any one<br>> <br>> Greg D. wrote:<br>> > VMWare is a virtual machine environment; the "player" program is a <br>> > free download from http://www.vmware.com/products/player.

With that, I CAN create my own VMs. My question was very <br>> forcused and directed as I already chased the Windows links, over to the <br>> BitTorrent Tracker, but NONE of the .torrents being tracked there <br>> mention anything about BEING a VMWare image.

Ok, the needle in a haystack was an exaggeration, but if you (or <br>> anyone else) want someone to try something, please consider making it <br>> obvious and not just throwing out "it exists, see if you can find it".<br>> <br>> <br>> _______________________________________________<br>> aprssig mailing list<br>> aprssig@tapr.org<br>> https://www.tapr.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/aprssig<br> <br /><hr />Your E-mail and More On-the-Go.
