Hi Otmar

So your Mac monitor doesn't *stretch* to opening the Etka?

I have a 17" Applevision 1710, 1024 x 768 (only blown up once so far in
several months' ownership... the wasserboxer of monitors), which I estimate
is as big as the dealer's screen. Even if smaller, it shouldn't affect
openability... just perhaps not show as much area of the displayed page.

I think the Etka may be PC executable (exe) files, which Macs aren't
supposed to be able to open. but it must be possible to translate exes,
you'd think.
