- Well, I am sorry to hear that, but on my system everything, from DOS sessions
- vga mode (any games) in a window to seamless windows, true multitasking (down-
- loading Meg's at 19200, formatting and copying disks and still be able to
- type somthing with my word processor), works very good and much more stable
- than any other (so called) OS I ever tried on my system. And that after ONE
- install.
