	Greetings,

		I have an XT, and as you might guess, very limited
		experience with windows.

		At a friends house, though I had a chance to play
		with it for a while on his 386. One thing I noticed
		is that	when you open a DOS session in a window, it doesn't
		go through the usual new shell stuff you might expect
		as an X user.

		It doesn't load config.sys or autoexec.bat when you
		start a new shell the way X loads .cshrc and .login.

		Is this a normal thing, or did my friend set his 
		windows up wrong?  If this is noraml then, how
		do you run things that require drivers (eg scanner)
		in a dos window?

		
		Also, I am thinking of buying a new system soon and
		I'd like to hear what an Optimal windows system is 
		likely to run me.  So if you have a really nice
		windows machine, how about dropping me a line with
		a description and cost?  I am not looking to buy used
		but I don't want to buy a slow machine or one that
		does not work well with windows. I don't really need
		color, but I do want good res as I am used to sitting
		in front of a Sun.  For that matter, would I be better
		off buying a Sun Sparcstation SLC?
