I love this.  First, it was "We have more applications."  Now, it's "We 
*WILL* have more applications."  I guess you're admitting there aren't 
many right now, right?

Still, I think I'll stick with programming games and applications in DOS and 
OS/2 (or, if I can learn how, Linux).  After all, Win95 can still run DOS 
programs, right?  And I can still make 32-bit DOS programs, right?  And, 
best of all, I don't want to miss the OS/2 and Linux (and DOS, and maybe 
Mac?) markets, now do I?
