 From what somebody said on the list previously I had a look at it the other
day, installed NT4/SP4 Office 2000/VisualStudio6/ omniORB2.71 etc etc... IE all
the Development tools used buy the group here... as I'm typing this I've
started a 'smoke test' of the NT application, It talks CORBA to a Linux Client
that I have... The only problem that I had was with office2000, It gave me some
error during the install, I pressed 'ok' and it kept going... My boss is so
impressed that He's gonna buy me a copy :)  

Running on SuSE-6.0 PII 400 128MB ram 500MB Swap and 64MB given to vmware...

l8r dudes...
