Lines: 18 The latest version of SoftPC due to be released in a few weeks runs in less memory, is supposed to be faster (a little), and costs less than the earlier version. I have the old version and an order for the new version. For a few casual applications, its fine. If you are going to do some serious MSDOS, I recommend a coprocessor. You get CGA emulation which is probably not suitable for CAD. It really is 100% PC compatible (everything runs). You get a little less than XT performance on a MAC II. -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Brian Jay Gould :: INTERNET gould@pilot.njin.net BITNET gould@jvncc - - UUCP rutgers!njin!gould Telephone (201) 329-9616 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------s
