  INFOPLUS is a program that has 18 'pages', each listing information about
various aspects of your computers (the CPU, the video, the RAM, the disks,
etc..)
  While I'm at it, here are some bugs that I know of in 1.31:
Under Desqview, the version number will be backwards if you have 2.00
The program will bomb out with a 'Runtime error 200' under Desqview on page
8 (serial ports) if it has not been given permission to read them. (error
200 is divide by zero.)
  The above 2 have been corrected for the next release.
Others:
  Trying to determine the VGA chipset on Page 6 can cause problems on
Compaq portables.
  Determining the drive info on page 16 can be real sloooow.
Changes I've already made for the next release:
  Support of >32M drives on Compaq DOS 3.31 and similar.

INFOPLUS 1.31 is also available on the Infoplus BBS, 708/537-0247.
