Thanks, I like it when people call me insane. If you'd like to lend me
your copy of the Win98 upgrade (original, 'cause I have a VIA chipset
and SE won't like my USB controller) or give me $100 to upgrade, I'd
appreciate it. I'd like to think I'm patient more than insane. It takes
a lot of tries to get this thing booted (Win95a with K6-2/400), and I
have to sit here and tell it to boot in normal mode every time it tells
me there's a WPF. It builds character.
