	I just got Windows Workstation (v4.0d) last week and picked up
	Win 3.1 Monday morning at Egghead (where I saw the UPS truck
	unloading Excel 4.0 as I left).

	So I decide to be daring and install test copies of both for
	myself (supervisor) to see what it will act like (we've been
	running Win 3.0a over Netware 3.11 for quite a while now)and
	I've noticed a few "features" I didn't count on:

	In setting up new groups EACH and EVERY Microsoft icon shows
	up in B&W while all the others work (finally figured out that
	they were 256-color icons...haven't figured out why yet).

	Creating new Network Groups in the Appman Shell of WW, I get
	"Cannot save DUKE:REALLY/BEAT/MICHIGAN/HUH.APP" errors.  Now,
	I've got full rights to save to the WW directory, but I still
	get these errors.  Haven't figured this one out yet.

	If anyone is running the above combo (or the Lan Man version)
	and could stand a few questions about Windows Workstation
	please email me.

	Thanks in advance...

	Sean
