From what I can tell, the software that you mentioned will run without a hitch.
A co-worker of mine brought his brand spanking new ZF-171 by the other day, and
we performed an informal software test (I have *lots* of PC software - even use
one  or  two programs (:-)) and found only one program that failed: PC/Intercom
by Mark of the Unicorn.  The reason is interesting -- it seems that many of the
first units (ZF-171's) shipped had an incorrect keyboard ROM that some programs
like to complain about.  Zenith has promised to send  the  corrected  ROM  that
will  supposedly  cure this compatibility problem (but you have to specifically
ask for it).  All in all, it seems to be a solid machine.  In fact,  it  turned
my head enough that I may get one, too!

BTW, have you actually used Turbo Lightning?  If so, what's your opinion of it?

Thanks...Keith
