I know nothing about winCE, do you say it's possible to test a winCE soft with
Windows95 ?
How can a soft be compatible with differents processors, have all the winCE
palmtop compatible processor ? have we to compile it at installation or is winCE
working like Java ?
I see recently winCE palmtop at 133 Mhz, How many mhz for the new Palm Pilot ?
It seems to me that winCE is more interessant for Chess than Palm (now and
especialy in future), opinions ?
