Re: Installing Designer 6i

Actually, this documentation is for Designer 6i Release 2, which does support personal edition (and Windows 2000).

However, Designer 6i Release 2 is not available to download from OTN yet. Although it should be in a few days. The release notes were left on OTN after a premature version of Release 2 was temporarily made available in October.
