Dear Colleagues,

I read recently in a computer magazine devoted to WindowsXP about the
existence within XP of a "Compatibility Manager".  In principle, it's
supposed to let you tag legacy software that won't run properly (or at all)
in XP, the implication being that XP would then run in an emulated W95/98
mode.  Has anyone had any experience with the "Compatibility Manager", does
it work?  More generally, how much of the W95/98  software you are using
fails to operate in WXP?  Jack
