Yep, also use confluence wiki for a customer and it is horrible. For another company I use mediawiki. Nothing beats that. Easy to edit, easy to maintain, good search capabilities, plenty of ways to extend. Edit: for updates of mediawiki use

Yes that's correct, only found it because of rwmj's reference, figured that adding a direct link might help. Missed last weeks thread about ChrysaLisp, will read. Thanks!

Also love GLScene, used it for building a 3D STL activex viewer control and that was not as hard as expected.

You are correct that it is a rant and that it could have been written better with additional parts of the correspondence to make a more convincing point. Note however that the forum I linked to where the post was shared is a forum visited b

Sorry, not the author of the article, but of course there's a history. I don't think the intention of the post is to stop people using Microsoft's email platform. It is about making it easier to troubleshoot, getting more hel

Keep an eye on this thread [0] at the VMware Fusion forum. Seems that it depends on if you installed Windows 10 by BIOS or EFI. For BIOS installed configurations you would have to disable SIP in order to use the bootcamp partition as a VM.

The problem with graphics though is that some graphical operations are destructive so you can't just undo the operation. In order to undo without a redo list, you would have to keep a complete graphical representation of the image and

One more recommendation is to use the "try before you buy" option [0]. You have 30 days to test. If it works out for you then buy and assign the license to the install and the time limit will be removed (so no need to reinstall) [

For Fusion and Bootcamp, especially if you converted to APFS, you'll need VMware Fusion 10. Then on top of that you'll have to remove the VM that points to the bootcamp partition and recreate that bootcamp VM. Some have reported s

If you're using VMware Fusion then your Bootcamp partition currently appears to be not accessible. So it looks like that the conversion does confuse VMware Fusion at the moment. Not aware of any other issues with Bootcamp.
