- It is terrible. I've tried using the PM program in a start.cmd to work on my
- ZEOS system along with an assembly program to set up the DOS sessions. I've
- had to abandon the DOS setting as the system seems to get totally confused
- when switching from one session to another. Sometimes numlock stays
- sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it is functionally off even though the
- indicator light is on. The operating system, the bios and the function setting
- programs are totally scrambled.
-
- The PS/2 I use at work has numlock normally on, My ZEOS is normally off. I
- like it on. I've heard others on the net who like it off. Guess no one will
- be satisfied.
