	Hi, Does any one know of a multitasker that will work for a CGA 
monitor 386/25 system to run bbs software?  I tried Desqview, Windows, Vmix 
and they wouldnot work for my monitor.
	I appreciate your help!

OS/2 2.0 supports CGA (although I would recommend buying a better video
card/monitor, but I do know that they are expensive).  Upgrade to OS/2 2.0
from Windows is reasonably priced -> $49.00 (and will include Windows 3.1
compatibility soon).  And yes, all DOS BBS software that I have tried works
fine under OS/2 2.0 (and it multitasks VERY well :)
