Re: MacClade and PAUP

[Paul Penkalski <turtlecroc@yahoo.com>]

People often talk about software that is available 
"only for Windows", e.g. the Nexus Data Editor 
mentioned below (haven't used this one myself--i 
just use any old text editor to enter PAUP data).

In fact, almost all Windows programs can be run on 
a Mac using Virtual PC or Softwindows (i think the 
latter is no longer in development and can only run 
Win 98se or earlier, but has some advantages over 
VPC). I'm not trying to advertise for either product 
but they are exceedingly useful--on occasion--for 
dedicated Mac users like myself, and are available 
from various sources. 

Cheers,
Paul P.
