What do I need to run QShift?
QShift requires only that you have the latest edition of Microsoft Windows-2000 or XP, or Microsoft Office 2000, XP, or Word 2003-the Microsoft .NET Framework, version 1.1, Internet Explorer 6.0+, and a reasonably high-speed connection to the Internet (128Kb and up-QShift is very happy running across a 256Kb uplink). The good news is that we know from research that a majority of you already have Windows XP or 2000, and nearly everyone has either DSL or cable Internet access today-more than enough “channel” to push QShift’s “computing across the Internet” capabilities. You need to make sure you’re running the latest Service Pack for your release of Windows XP or 2000 and that you have loaded the .NET Framework (1.1) upgrade. Doing so not only ensures that your machine is ready for the rigors of using the commercial Internet for productive client work, it also means you are the most secure. If you don’t have .NET already loaded, don’t worry: It is available during the QShift installation
