Well, seeing that I want to do the same thing... Will all this stuff work 
under v1.3 instead of 2.0? I have an AT currently running waffle 1.64 to 
give folks dialup access to my net and internet/usenet and I'm trying to 
replace DOS on this machine with OS/2 1.3, but I need to keep the same 
functionality.
