}I know it's not ip related but this is wierd!

It seems not to matter to much here, which is good :)

[envy snipped]

}However, running the DOS Telemate comms program causes, err, well.. a slight
}problem.  Telemate works fine until it emits a 'beep'.
}Result?  Trap 2...  total macho-hango.  Big Red Switch Time.  All because
}Telemate goes 'beep'.. or 'warrbbllee'.

With two exceptions in the history of OS/2 trap 0002 is *always* a
memory error caused by mismatched or bad SIMMs

}But, on the other, there is this DOS program that can kick an entire
}OS/2 kernel into touch.... on this particular machine.  This is worrying.

Not worrying unless you have to find the problem with the SIMMs :)

Wish him good luck from me :)
