I assume you meant to edit the newsgroup line to comp.sys.ibm.pc.I-don't- have-a-personality-I-am-a-work-drone, instead of the numerous game newsgroups, filled with wacky people to whom playing games is actually quite important, not to mention fun. Hey, we all make mistakes, even you more-serious-and-anal-retentive-than-thou types. Cheers, Marl ps Just to add a modicum of signal to the original thread, I have found that os2 is indeed a nice operating system with some advantages, esp. for business users. Dos and Windows stuff seems to run uniformly slower, however. Since stability has never been a problem for me (windows on my Micron PowerMag is VERY stable), speed IS one of my primary concerns. I have stayed with DOS/Windows because of this, and will no doubt try windoze '95 in the near future. And Yes, largely for GAMES. *shudder* ...the horror..the horror.
