Geez, you're smoking the good crack.  OF COURSE YOU CAN RUN ANY DOS GAME, 
BECAUSE YOU'RE RUNNING DOS.  Why not just save yourself the hundred bucks 
and stay as far away from Warp as possible.  Win 95 does claim to have a 
boot manager, but I'll be damned if I can find it.  HOWEVER, when you say 
that win 95's reboot to DOS mode is nowhere near as compatible as real 
DOS, IT IS DOS.  When you reboot to DOS with Win 95, your PC only touches 
the files it would when it was, say, booting up DOS 6.  I would not even 
compare Win 95 to Warp...  Win 95 is multitasking version of Windows, and 
it's good windows.  OS/2 Warp is a real low-level operating system that 
is very nice and good, but my Colorado Jumbo 250 won't work under it...

I killed Warp because it was annoying, and Win 95 is just the thing that 
boots up before I exit to the DOS prompt...

Regardless of what anyone my claim, I know firsthand, stuff does not run 
under OS/2....
