That would be awesome If I could leave my Win'98 machine dedicated for the
DriveWire 4 server instead of tying up my XP minipc.  :)  I would love to
test this for you when you get around to it.

DW4 will run on anything that has a fairly modern JVM.  This includes all
versions of Windows from XP to 8.  It can work on even older versions, down
to Windows 95, but the current build does not.  It also works fine on most
any Linux (including the raspberry Pi and other tiny ARM based PCs) and most
Macs.

If anyone wonders about a particular machine, the easiest way to tell will
be to find out if that machine has a JVM of at least version 1.5 available.
Currently DW4 requires 1.6, but I think I can bring it back to 1.5 in the
next version.
