Re: CCL:New ideas for chemistry software

 Regarding the summary of new ideas:
 Dear All,
 please keep in mind that PC does not mean Microsoft !
 There have been several statements that want to get programs ported to Windows
 to be able to run them on "cheap" PC-hardware.
 Since there are many OSs that run these programs on exactly that cheap
 hardware, I would not see this urgent need for porting but would like the
 programs to be enhanced in functionality !
 PS: I know at least 10 OSs of very different flavour running on exactly this PC
 hardware, of which MS_DOS(+Win3.1+Win9x) and Windows NT are only two, and will
 be only one really soon, since the DOS branch is declared death already by
 Microsoft.
 Moreover basically all of this can be installed in parallel on the same machine.
 So I would strongly suggest to work on the science part of the programs, not
 the operating system topics.
 Greetings,
 Jochen
