   Thanks, yes, that's one of the thinks I wanted to know. Most starter   
   Win 11 machines have 4Gig RAM and I was thinking one might need at   
   least twice that to run a piggy-back virual OS on top of it.   
      
   But, as I mentioned elsewhere, I've managed to get a 2nd-hand machine   
   with Win 10 32-bit, so I'll see how well that works.
