Using VPC to interface with a 100% PC only device, both hardware and all software, seems to me to be just common sense if one chooses to venture into the PPC arena. Just wait until the next major Microsoft updater.

.Exe installers aren't going to go away, they are deeply part of the PPC framework. It's like buying an MP3 player, then complaining about the format.

Besides, the .exe installers provide the license agreement mechanism that no major software developer will let get bypasssed anymore.

I don't really get the rantings about mp3 - there are many other compression formats to choose from and many players to choose from... :?:

I use a Mac so that I can use its OS and programs made for its OS. If I want to use Windows, I use a PC. PPC is now completely compatible with Mac. I chose to sync to the Mac because I prefer it to Activesync.. so I don't really get what you're saying there either...

The only incompatibility is in the installation of software. EULA's can always be put into the ppc-side of the program installation - and many programs do this. So, I don't really get what you're saying there either...

I guess I'm just trying to take steps forward.. no point in taking 3 steps back. 8)
