- Yes, I believe there are, although the two you name don't come to
- mind.
-
- I believe PC Week recently did a roundup of mapping software for the
- PC (DOS, Windows, OS/2). A couple of the titles, actually, were only
- available in OS/2 versions. If you get PC Week, or have access to a
- library that gets it, look through the last half of 1992 and you'll
- find it.
-
- If you need some more help finding titles, please let me know.
