If not why not ? I'm just about to take possession of an XP as my
current Win 98 is really screwed up. Because of that although I can get
into the M/F site I can't get always correct responses to searches, so
couldn't specifically confirm answer to your question - therefore
suggest you double check with your salesman, certainly about the Win
Server 2003.

Here's the tricky part. Do you currently have paid technical
maintenance, which automatically gives you access to fixes/upgrades. If
you haven't got paid maintenance there *might* be a problem. You can
re-load N/E V 3.1. from the CD, then you will need to submit for a
Request Key, pointing out you are switching to a new machine. Now to any
service packs you had installed originally - no paid maintenance, you
wont be able to access the fixpack link. So check with your sales
support on how you can get versions of the fixpacks which you have to
date. (Suggestion - once they know how up-to-date you are - they could
'burn' you a CD with the update info).

Any additional problems - you would be well advised to join M/F's Answer
Exchange (free) and ask for support there.

Works fine under XP...

Only slight problem is the CBL_DEBUGBREAK dialog doesn't display properly,
but to be honest, I've never looked for any fixes ... just not worth my
time...
