[Coco] Portal-9 tester needed for Windows 2000

[Bob Devries]

Roger, I'd be happy to test for you.

I have a Compaq Armada 1500c Laptop (actually my Wife's), which runs W2K 
V5.00.2195 SP3 with 64MB of Ram

Since I already own a copy of Portal-9, I'm happy to test for free (or maybe 
some other product).

> Hello,

> Each new .exe will have slight changes to the dialog window styles for the
