Hint hint Roy. There are a lot of us out here that use only, or almost

The "lot" comprises about 5% of the total market at the outside. Are you
willing to pay 20 times as much for EZNEC as Windows users?


I would gladly pay double without a blink, and I doubt that it would be
that much work, in the long run, to make a Linux version. Your SW and
your call obviously, but you are making a very wrong assumption that
porting a version that runs under a different OS takes nearly the same
development effort.

I would gladly assist in making it work. I have no idea what language it
is written in, but as long as it is not in something MS specific it
shouldn't be that hard to port.

Hi Tom

I recognize that you are discussing *programming* and that you know alot
more about computers than I do. But, I am so impressed with the capability
of the EZNEC as a tool for learning that I wanted to remind other readers
that a "good enough for running EZNEC" computer can be purchased for no
more than $50.00.
