Thanks!

Isos have VMs inside but I have only tested the Windows VMs on them  
recently but I have used ISO mounted disks to run them in various  
systems all the time. And it turns out it is not even a problem with  
Mac OS X because I was able to run them with my default VM by just  
double clicking the ezine.image. One problem I encountered though was  
Mac complains the ISO format may be corrupted. They still work though.

Interestingly those issues turned out to be good examples of "write  
once run everywhere" motto. Seeing them run on Mac OS-X is great. Even  
today opening them up and seeing examples such as "Audio Explorer" in  
"Active Essays in Studying Computer Music" makes me proud. Compare  
this to the mess we are in with browsers and Javascript today which is  
said to be a great improvement over 5 years ago!

Once we had a great little system with so much potential. I am still  
trying to comprehend where we went wrong and weren't able to "play it  
grand" with this "dinky little system" that had so much potential. And  
I have been following the discussions we have been having recently and  
I can't see the answers in them. I think we are missing the big  
picture somewhere but I can't pinpoint where.

Never had a chance to reformat them and not likely to be able to do so  
in the near future but if there were any volunteers to do anything  
with them I'd be glad to answer any questions.

Cheers,

Tansel
