I posted in a comment in that blog entry, and I indicated that I was successful in getting it to work under XP. It's definitely not officially supported, since it is not an official Microsoft-supported product, but everything (including the gadget) is free, so who cares?

Overall, my recommendation is just to get Vista. It's a relatively painless upgrade, now that drivers are available for just about everything, and the home versions are not expensive and don't require all that much more p... [ More ]

Installed everything in order and it's working like a dream. The LP gadget is really cooly. I just love the souns effects..I don't have to keep running back to the results page or to betslips to see what's hitting.

ok I guess its not equivalent. but its good for people (like my mom) who cant do anything with a computer other than open programs.

when I said equivalent I meant in the sense that it gets lotto numbers. didn't mean to disrespect your gadget.

Your link isn't making it through, because we have very strong anti-spam measures here. (Much-needed for sites related to the lottery.)

If you will e-mail me the link I'll take a look. (You can use the contact page on the left.)

nevermind I figured it out.

I just wanted to point out that there is a similar program (thought not as cool) as the Gadget program. (awesome program btw).

its called getsCAL . I hope it's not considered advertising. I just wanted to point it out to the XP users out there.

it didn't let me post the link though.
