Sunnyvale CA Lines: 13 If you are looking to do multitasking with DV, my best advice is to get something which does EEMS. Note that EMS 4.0, although a later spec, is a much less useful spec in that you can palm almost anything off as EMS 4.0. Do not buy a 286 with a NEAT chipset if you want to multitask. You will probably end up with a 386sx as I did. (your specified configuration is hopeless) -- Phil Ngai, phil@amd.com {uunet,decwrl,ucbvax}!amdcad!phil A PC without DESQview is like Unix without ^Z.
