It is written using the Panorama database (a wonderfully fast RAM-based program). Anyway, they have ported it over to Windows and he has been busily working to convert the Mac based Inview to it. But he said he has done it all on a iMac G3 running windows in emulation. He does have a Pentium, but said the iMac was more stable with windows than the Pentium. But he has bought two Pentiums, now, he said, since he will have to be able to experience the kind of problems Windows people are going to have so he can do customer support. He also said he has had talks with Adobe customer support and was told they provide 10 times more customer support per unit sold with Windows over Mac.
