   (2.2??) My copy of VP/ix (ver 1.2) runs fine under ESIX.  The only thing 
it doesn't support at this time is the mouse.  I have been told by ESIX 
that they are looking into this and hope to have a fix.  ESIX is also 
distributing a fix to Rev. D, so VP/ix will run under windows.

   Don't know that one yet...
