    In that case, you should complain to Microsoft. The APIs necessary for PerlApp aren't included with WinME. In fact, the guts of the various Microsoft flavors are quite different across the board. Honestly, I've had more problems porting from Win98 to WinNT than Win98 to Solaris for some applications.

    (I'm done ranting now.)

    As far as dual boot, it means that you have two operating systems on one computer (e.g., WinME and WinNT). I don't know how it's done on Windows. On Linux, it's such old hat that you could probably find a score of HOWTOs on the web.

    On Windows, if you have to ask what dual-booting means, you're probably better off spending some money on a commercial package (for example System Commander) that will walk you through the process.

    Hope this helps :-)
