Minor modification would impact many...

I work for a very large school district (the Department of Defense Education
Activity). We have many educators and students that would benefit from
SyncToy.

The problem, we have Win2k almost exclusively. I'd guess an average of 200
computers at 120 schools for approximately 24,000 or more computers. Over 90%
Win2k (some OSX and a few XP laptops).


Now after looking at SyncToy installed on Win2k it appears that it would
need only minor adjustments to make it Win2k compatible (simple things like
screen refresh). Any chance this can happen? It could favorably impact
literally hundreds of our teachers and students (if not thousands).

It is most unlikely that anyone is going to update a program to make it
Win2k compatible. In any case, you should ask SyncToy about this issue.
Any response from this group is pure speculation.

Hi Ric,

SyncToy was only tested on Windows XP and we really don't plan to test it on
Win2k. That said, Win2K users have been telling us that SyncToy works well on
Win2K. Using the V1 of SyncToy on Win2k, have you seen anything in particular
that doesn't work?

Thanks Ric,
george
