Basically what it comes down to for me is that I WILL NOT RUN NT. I do not like Microsoft products – they are poorly written and designed and they are bug filled. Their support is truly abysmal and they prefer to charge you for an upgrade when all they are really offering is a patch – i.e. MS-DOS 6.0 ->MS-DOS 6.22 – a bug fix masquerading as an upgrade. IBM is coming out with PC-DOS 7.0 next month and I will be upgrading to that. For a 32 bit system I will either go with OS/2 or I will take a hard look at the Russians' 32 Bit DOS. Hopefully one day MVS/ESA will be available in a desktop version or on a server! Judy
