The demo seems to work great and it even allows me to do multitasking. But the demo raised a question in my mind: * If I were to get the Full MINIX would I be able to use any of the software I'm currently running under MSDOS 3.2? (e.g. Lotus 1-2-3, Wordperfect 5.0, QuickC) Thanks =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | /\\\\\ Bradley C.
