I'm not sure about discount prices from distributors. It is marketed by: Quarterdeck Systems 150 Pico Blvd. Santa Monica, CA 90405 (213) 392-9851 You might want to check out the latest issue of PC Magazine (Feb 28, 1989). It has a review of the most popular multi-tasking software, including DESQview and Windows/Windows 386. I use Windows/386 and like it very much. You do need 2 Meg to really do much in the way of multi-tasking though.
