SoftPC/AT is too SLOW! I don't think it is reasonable for use with IBM software. There is a product called RunPC which is out, I don't know who makes it or how much better it is, though I've heard it's a little faster. SoftPC in my opinion is too slow, but is most other respects (compatability, etc) it seems to work fine. Nathan.
