  13.     I have read, and heard, from different sources that 
  14.     SVR4.2 will be able to run DOS, WINDOWS, programs, etc...
  15.  
  16.     Will SVR4.2 use VP/IX or DOS MERGE to do the task, or
  17.      can we expect something new and improved??? 
  18.  
  19.     Do current UNIX systems, i.e. ESIX, DELL, etc... have good
  20.     support for DOS type program??? I suspect a dual boot
  21.     set-up is probably what I will have to settle for.
  22.  
  23.     Can anyone shed some light on this subject??
