Charlie,

Do you mean that you used installed the Citrix Client on the Macs, and then
was able to work on a PureEdge viewer application package remotely? We have
done that here at our university as well; however, to my knowledge yours is
the first I have heard of someone installing PureEdge on a Mac.

If you have any questions or need further assistance please do not hesitate
to contact me at 617-353-4365 or xxxxxx@bu.edu.

Regards,
Eleanor Greene

I am no fan of Microsoft, conclusions based on an N of 1, or any government
policy operating on "the end justifies the means" rationale.  But this Post
story was a big boo-hoo fed to the conspiracy addicts.  And since I was able
this week to successfully install PureEdge on several Macs (albeit with the
help of the universities of Wisconsin and Maryland more than Grants.gov),
and we now hear of PureEdge applications going through error-free despite
lack of sophisticated error checking, I am seeing a light at the Feb 2007
end of the tunnel, and it looks more like a celebration than an apocalypse.
