I noticed a copy of "Windows 286", Version 2.1 at our bookstore last week and was wondering if I should buy it. Does it give me any additional functionality over my current version of Windows? I know that Windows 386 allows me to create virtual 8086 processes, but can't imagine Windows 286 can do that on a 286. Thanks in advance.
