    MJ: CVData

    Norm,

    On the Multi-Betting Strat Setup screen I attached a wong out strategy for the last row, and a non-wonging strategy for the first 5 rows and then saved it. When I press the Display Strategy button the first 5 strategies are displayed on the screen but the last strategy is always removed. Why is this happening?

    Also, for my wonging sims if I press the Customize button followed by Hands Played (DI/SCORE/SD), SCORE sky rockets from 4.5 to 42. I don't really understand why this occurs. Which one should I use? The SD/Hand is fixed, regardless if I play 100 hands/hr or 15 hands/hr. I don't really see why SCORE changes.

    Go to Tools-Export and send me the file. But, all members of a multi-betting strategy should wong or all should not. Although you can change the wonging level such that it never occurs. The definition of SD/Hand can be changed to hands played or hands observed.

    MJ: CVCX Installation difficulty

    Norm,

    I am trying to install the software on my new laptop from the CD. The OS is Vista.

    After it installs and I click on the CVCX or CVData icon, I get the following message.

    CVame
    Component 'Vsflex6d.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid.

    What should I do?

    Norm Wattenberger: Vista sucks

    This is a documented Vista bug that occurs on some Vista systems and not others and no one seems to know why.

    1. Reboot
    2. Make sure NOTHING is running
    3. Hold down the Windows button on the keyboard and type R. A RUN box should appear.
    4. Type REGSVR32.EXE c:\windows\system32\Vsflex6d.ocx /u
    5. Hit OK
    6. Hold down the Windows button on the keyboard and type R.
    7. Type REGSVR32.EXE c:\windows\system32\Vsflex6d.ocx
    8. Hit OK

    .

    This can be said about many aspects of Vista.

    Ya gotta love those Mac commercials. I especially like the one where the PC guy says that he already went back to XP a couple of weeks ago.

    It is by far, one of the most annoying computer Operating Systems of all time. A true clusterfuck.

    Norm Wattenberger: Apple sucks

    Windows is the worst operating system ever written by a very long shot. And I have used dozens of OSs over the last 40 years. It is the bane of my existence and I am constantly astounded at its flaws.

    That said, the Mac commercials are absurdly dishonest and Apple should be fined for running them. If you believe them then you believe that PCs do almost nothing and are in black and white while Macs do everything. Fact is, Macs have less than 1% of the software that PCs have and less than 0.1% of the hardware. Since the commercials have started running, the number of e-mails I have received from Mac users complaining that my software doesn't work has gone up by well over 20 times. As if it's my fault these poor users have been lied to by Apple. It's up to me to explain that they have been hoodwinked by a crooked company.

    But yes, Vista sucks. One company is incompetent and the other criminal. Your choice

    David Spence: CV Linux?

    As Norm kindly pointed out to me earlier, there really isn't any good blackjack software for Linux, so I've lowered my requirements: does anyone know of ANY blackjack software for Linux? All I've found so far is a pretty feeble "Blackjack for the Hopelessly Luckless."

    Take a look at BJ Strike. While it does not have the myriad features or polished graphics of Norm's products, it does run on most Linux distributions.

    I really appreciate your quick response...BJ Strike looks like a great choice (my Linux machine is a bit too underpowered to run a Windows emulator, so that's not an option).

    Thanks again,

    Only slightly less impressive than the blackjack knowledge of this board's regulars is their proper grammar. The adjective form of "myriad" above instead of its bastardized use as a noun is a welcome sight. And Don's knowledge that "Thanks to whomever can answer!" is wrong is nothing short of a miracle these days.

    Trapper: All computer suck but ....

    I'm not a fan of the ads either - they are misleading. Hardly criminal. They generally play upon the half-truth that Macs are easier to use and are better at creative tasks. Anyone who has had to struggle through using Windows video editing software at a professional level may find it to be more than a half-truth. I think it is a testament to the badwill that Microsoft has built up over the years that you are the first person I have ever heard complaining about them.

    That said, my mac runs your software just fine. The current Apple operating system (10.5 Leopard) and all new macs are built on the Intel platform and come with support for Vista or previous Windows operating systems built in. Of course, you need to own or buy a copy of a Windows operating system but it will give you the ability to run virtually every current commercial software.

    "Fact is, Macs have less than 1% of the software that PCs have and less than 0.1% of the hardware."

    This is far from a fact or at least it is a very misleading one. Current Macs, which are the hardware that runs the Mac OS, will run far more current apps including pretty much any Windows application out there. In any case, the 1% figure is a red herring. How many of the many pieces of software available for Windows simply duplicate the functions of others. I have had Macs for 15 years which I have used every day at home and for several businesses that I have run. I have almost never needed a Windows program. I purchased emulation hardware and software solutions in the past for vertical market programs that had no Mac equivalent and soon found that I didn't need them. It wasn't until I got interested in blackjack and your excellent products and the many Windows-only internet casinos that I had any real need for using a Microsoft OS and the awkward and slow emulation programs that were then available; I even considered buying a cheap PC to use only for blackjack. Now with Boot Camp and the fast and inexpensive virtualization programs available, I no longer have to make that choice.

    "Since the commercials have started running, the number of e-mails I have received from Mac users complaining that my software doesn't work has gone up by well over 20 times."

    I am surprised that you are reacting that way to a potential source of new customers. Are you saying that customers have been having problems running CV software with Boot Camp?

    Norm Wattenberger: Virtualization, Boot Camp and other techy terms

    The people fooled by these ads have no idea what virtualization means or what Boot Camp is and no interest in learning. This is very confusing to the neophytes targeted by this campaign. They were told that all they had to do was plug in the Mac and unlike the PC it would do everything with no effort. That's the entire thrust of the commercials. Nowhere in the commercials is there any mention of the fact that Windows programs don't run natively on Macs. Of course a Mac can run more than 1% of software developed - if you install Windows on the Mac. But then you still have to deal with Windows erasing all meaning of the ads. Worse, computer neophytes have to set up Boot Camp, learn two operating systems and learn to use Windows apps with a one-button mouse. I believe this is clear false advertising.
