I am running Oracle on my workstation and also Microsoft's Office tools. Other than that it's pretty vanilla. It was born as WinNT 3.51 and has been upgraded from there. I haven't had a chance to give Shredder 4 a full go over yet, but I do like the "Book" window that has been added. Are there any sample "User Books" available to follow when building a new one?
