In my PC magazine today I noticed an advert from Digital Research
(this is in the UK, but I should think a similar arrangement exists in
the USA).  They are offering a free upgrade disk to existing users of
DR DOS 6.0 to enable it to work with Windows (just call a 800 number).
Quite a fast reponse considering Microsoft did not let them have
a beta and so they'd have to have waited until yesterday to get a copy
of Windows 3.1 :)

ANyway, the advert reads pretty well (it is really aimed at new buyers 
of DR DOS 6.0) .....

"DR DOS 6.0 and Windows 3.1.  Not just compatible, but totally infatuated.
DR DOS 6.0 and Windows 3.1 were made for each other.  As the most advanced
operating system and GUI (!) respectively, they're a match made in heaven.

DR DOS 6.0 is simply THE most powerful when working with Windows.  It will
unleash the hidden potential of your PC, doubling hard disk space (a vital
benefit for Windows users), and accessing data up to five times faster.

It will "free up" more memory for Windows applications and is wholly compatible
with all other DOS products.

And it will cost you just 79 (pounds in the UK).

Moreover, existing users of DR DOS 6.0 can obtain a free Windows 3.1
update disk by calling us, free, on 0800 666767 (UK phone number)."

I just phoned them up, they took my name and address and say they'll pop 
it in the post (today I presume).  :)
