It's a matter of taste, I guess. Desqview is unobtrusive, whereas Windows (GUIs in general) is not. >The thing I really dont like about Desqview is that, >on a high resolution monitor, it wont support text resolutions like >132x50 or 132x40. I'm reading this in 132x40 right now -- under Desqview. You're quite mistaken. >Windows (on a 386) on the other hand, will allow me >to have several "DOS" windows open at once. So will Desqview -- on a 386, 286 or even 88/86. Furthermore, it runs DOS operations concurrently with less chance of crashing and in my experience, runs them faster. Feel free to enjoy Windows. Like Jesus, it gives me the hives. -- "Are you saying that I am judging those who use defamatory language or make judgemental statements?" -- Jeff Shaevel
