free WINDOWS rekall?
Chris - Thanks so much for your suggestion to visit _www.rekallrevealed.org_
(http://www.rekallrevealed.org) . I just read over the entire site, and it
does not appear that there is a free Windows automatic install package for
Rekall, and I am really not in a position to attempt to take some kind of
source code and attempt to generate a windows package, especially if it would all
be done for me for a reasonable $60 (I forget exact price). Or, am I
mistaken regarding a free windows version of Rekall?

I just downloaded the windows demo for Rekall, which is an MSAccess
like product (loosely speaking) with native drivers for postgresql and
some other engines (plus odbc for yet others). I was a bit confused
on certain things so I emailed my questions, and the president of the
company replied.It wasnt clear what product I should purchase for windows, and he said
that the basic $60 rekall gives you both windows and linux versions.
You know there is a free version of Rekall as well as the paid for one
do you? Take a look at http://www.rekallrevealed.org
I was also unclear about how long the demo remains active (30 days, 10
days?) but he explained that the demo never expires, remains active
indefinitely, but logs off ever 20 minutes. It unzipped and
installed effortlessly on my part. And it was very simple to tell it
to look at a postgresql database. It uses python as a scripting
language.I havent done a lot with it yet, but I think I am going to like it a
lot.

No, sorry, you're probably right. I dabbled in Rekall a few months
ago when I was trying to move an Access application to my Linux system
so didn't look at the Windows aspects of Rekall.
However there is yet another site:-
http://www.totalrekall.co.uk
At that site a Windows version is downloadable and only costs $25 if I
have read it correctly.
I think there was some sort of (rather acrimonious) split between the
people who now run both www.totalrekall.co.uk and www.rekallrevealed.org
and the people who run www.theKompany.com.
