If it becomes evident that Microsoft is thwarting development of this product, would that constitute grounds for a class action lawsuit???

The next version, which will be released at the same time as Office 11, will work on G5s.

They basically have to rewrite the main functionality of VPC: the processor emulator.

And why a missing product for a certain computer model should be able to result in a lawsuit is beyond me. Did they promise you that VPC6 would work on G5s?

In the same way that Apple has thwarted, and stopped Shake for the PC, and SGI?
