Umm, I guess I differ.

I use Windows/386 for multitasking windows and DOS apps. So far, it has
worked flawlessly even with the most unforgiving DOS apps. My favorite
configuration is Procomm downloading yet another useless file in the background,
while I use Lotus Manuscript in the foreground, and just to speed things up,
I give Manuscript 2Megs of EMS 4.0 RAM, managed by windows/386. Or, I have a
DOS session with an editor, another one to compile source (I write windows
progs), and then I switch to Windows to try out my latest fiasco in C! I also
know that Windows/386 will run 123 and FoxBase+ Multiuser in fullscreen and
window mode, each with its own DOS space.

Hope this helps a bit.
