- Must be something about WP extender products. I can't get
- MoreFonts 3.0 to run (it will load and run sometimes, but
- no printouts--other times it brings down the whole system with
- a spectacular lightshow--can't find a means to predict which)
- nor could I get TrueType for DOS to work properly.
-
- I wonder how well WP 6.0 will run.
