H. Zau) Distribution: na Organization: Microsystems Technology Laboratories, MIT Lines: 16 I am very interested to add application switching capabilities to our PCs (both 286 and 386). By which I mean toggling from one program to another so that the one not currently used is saved away in virtual memory. I have seen the review on WINDOWS 3.0 stating that it has this ability. Can anyone recommend/comment on any application that would allow me to do so? Also I would like to know the hardware requirements for it. Thanks alot. PS we have network drives (PCNFS) running from our workstations -- ************************************************************ Gavin Zau Dept of Chemical Engineering, MIT gavin@caf.mit.edu mefl@eagle.mit.edu
