RVTools #5 version 2.4

A new version! WooHoo!

I upgraded immediately, of course.

Actually I tried an install first, but there was the same trek to the "Add or Remove Programs" Control Panel applet to remove the currently installed version before installing the new version.

It looks identical to the previous version. The only differences are that at the bottom of a number of tabs is a button to perform specific actions relevant to that tab, i.e. on the vCD tab unmounting the CD/DVD, and on those tabs each line has a selection box so that the action can be applied to one or more of your VMs.

I'm guessing Rob is going to go further along the line of adding actions to the interface. In general I like the idea and I am interested to see how he'll change the UI to accommodate those changes. At the moment the tabular interface is fine, but with more functionality it will be difficult to make it all easily accessible!

Bottom line: still on the immediate download & install list!
