Compatibility with current technologies

Hi John,
RR applications built for Windows X86 would run as-is on Windows XP Embedded
Assuming the Embedded XP Build included graphics support etc. XP Embedded is
just XP split up into a number of components so you can tailor it to your
embedded requirements.
Cheers
Derek

Hey, I'm just the messenger  ;-)

Windows CE .NET 4.2 is the current 'embedded' OS used in many of the tablet
PC devices. Here is a link with more info about CE .NET 4.2 (watch the
wrapping on this link):

This is actually related to a long time request of RR being compatible with
Windows CE, but now that the OS is much more robust (with CE .NET), I have
many competitors coming out with software for these embedded devices...and I
can't using RR. I am starting to get frustrated at the lack of interest in
this area on the part of RR.


Speaking of embedded...

Whatever happened to the embedded option anyway? This was something I wanted
to look into with MetaCard, and it disappeared before I had a chance to
explore it...is it still available? Would this option work (at least) with
embedded XP? Embedded Linux?

I am posting this here because others might be interested in this.
