	I have heard about this too.  I can say that the new Multi-User DOS
is not FlexOS (a real-time protected mode OS from us).  What I can't say has
to be posed as a question:  What other Multi-tasking/Multi-user systems have
we released over the years and what are the impressions/possibilities of
Multi-User DOS being a derivative/direct descendant of one of these...:-?
