Hi all!

I am looking for opinions/recommendations/condemnations/etc. on desktop managers
for Win 3.1.  I am currently using NDW 1.0 (was using it with Win 3.0; haven't
tried it yet with 3.1), but thought I would hold up on upgrading to NDW 2.0
(does Symantec offer an upgrade option to registered users?).  I have played
a bit with WinTools, and have looked over the description on the box of HP's
NewWave 4.0; both of these look like they would give NDW a run for its money.

So: anyone out there have anything good/bad to say about any of these desktop
managers?  Which one should I plunk my money down for? NDW 2.0, WinTools, or
HP NewWave 4.0?

Thanks in advance for all responses.  You can (try to) email your responses to
me, but then I think that this information might be valuable to others on the
net, so maybe posting would be a better bet.  Again, thanks.
