We have not made that decision yet. It will definitely be a Windows
'95 game but whether a DOS version exists or not will depend on market
conditions that exist when we get closer to release. My gut feeling is
that you should _not_ expect a DOS version but please don't take that
as anything but a gut feeling from the VP in charge of Marketing.

I think you are correct in this. BTW, I think Jazz II's performance
unders Windows '95 (on the appropriate machine) will be fantastic.
