Sunnyvale CA Lines: 12 As someone who installed DOS 4.01 and then deinstalled it and reverted to 3.3, I wonder why you guys use it? I run out of memory a lot and DOS 4.01 wasn't helping. Do you have files larger than 32 megabytes? I really don't mind the partitions I use on 3.3. I keep programs on c: and backed it up once. Data is on d: and backed up daily. This is actually a convenience. Am I missing any important features of 4.01 besides large drives? -- Phil Ngai, phil@amd.com {uunet,decwrl,ucbvax}!amdcad!phil When guns are outlawed, only governments will have guns.
