Portal-9 runs fine on my XP and 98 computers.

Anyway, Jim has stuck with me through some long hours these past few 
days.  He is having issues with unzipping the Portal-9 package with WinZip 
8.x, but not every time, just on some downloads.  I'm not sure that is 
happening, there.  XP is a master with the .zip format.  I need extra beta 
testers after Christmas day if that is okay with some of you.

The last test file I uploaded is at http://coco3.l-w.net/Portal9(6).zip  I 
think. You can try (5) (4) (3) (2) (1) as well.  Some of those might have 
been removed, however.  The number will climb to (7) and so on, but these 
packages will be trimmed a tad, no splash images, fewer projects, etc. 
until I see that the system runs on your computer like it does on my 2 
computers.
