Why would you do that?  Can you run it under WINE or something?  Or was 
that just a CD you had handy test test with?

TT is one of the few "killer apps" that I can see I might need to keep a 
Windows box around for.  And I can see that becoming a problem, as I 
refuse to have Vista in the house.  I'm also not really comfortable 
using a web-based service for this purpose.

Thanks,
JP

Microsoft has single-handedly nullified Moore's Law.
Innate design flaws of Windows make a personal firewall, anti-virus
and anti-malware software mandatory. The resulting software arms race
has effectively flattened Moore's Law on hardware running Windows.
