You're running Win2K or XP on a P-133 laptop?  I can see Win2K, maybe,
if the system has enough RAM.  I have some Compaq P-133 laptops that
sound like they may be similar to your HP.  One has 84M of RAM.  I am
running Win 98, Debian Linux, and Damn Small Linux on them.  VCC will
only run on Win2K or XP (or Vista, presumably), so I can't try it on one
of those laptops.  But I have run Jeff Vavasour's CoCo 3 emulator on
one.  I didn't have any problems with it.
