	According to what I was told neither 3.51 or 3.52 are going to 
support the VBX extensions of either 3.11 or '95 and therefore will not 
have the capability of running much software.  No denying that it is a hell 
of a better operating system than any other widely used desktop OS, but 
you still run into the same (actually opposite) problem as MacOS with 
the availability of practical software.
