[Qgis-user] Re: Newbie question - gml files

[Sam Vekemans]

Thanks,
I did download the big ubuntu.iso file...


Why is there no simple .exe program that i can just download, where it
includes wine & vbox (so then i can swap back to windowsXP when
needed)?


Thats a last resort option.
Can anyone verrify that it opens fine on windows xp with a screenview?
As i think it's still my computer which has a (anti-gml virus).


cheers,
Sam
