Not to Finally -- back to games :-). Obviously, you mustn't have been doing something correctly. The only game I've not been able to get running under OS/2 is The Farm, since it uses Win32s version 1.2, and OS/2 currently supports an earlier version. I can run Descent, DOOM, Reader Rabbit1, Math Rabbit, all Borderbund's Living Books, among others (okay, so my kids have more games than I do :-). OS/2 also supports joysticks; however, I don't own one, so I can't really say more on the topic, except I wonder if the stick(s) in question above were supported by OS/2. JOHN * John M.
