In another thread, Dennis & Max were wondering about getting "Tobar na Gaedhilge" running on a Mac. I had mentioned that I'd done it previously using Virtual PC & Windows 98 and that it seemed to work fine at that point.
I'm happy to report that it still works. Using Virtual PC 5 on MacOS9 or Virtual PC 7 on MacOSX and Windows XP as the OS, I successfully ran "Tobar na Gaedhilge" again today. Here are a couple of screen captures:

The "Tobar na Gaedhilge" software is available here:
