    How do you do that?!?  This is a non-Desqview mode, supported the same
way it supports SVGA modes, right?  So, you can run one full-screen program
at 132x40, but if you do any Desqview operation the screen gets replaced
by a grey mask, right?  As far as I know, this is the extent of 132-column
support.  What I would really like is a 100x60 mode (supported by my ATI
card in graphics), but Desqview's graphics modes will only do 80x50.
