Thanks Ed. Yes I am a programmer, as a hobby (not professionaly). I learned
about real mode vs. protected mode long ago when I learned to do graphics in
mode 13h, in DOS. Even from my limited experience in DOS, I agree with you. DOS
is a lot easier and simpler if you're doing low level stuff. I hated Windows
programming at first, but with things like SDL (www.libsdl.org), it makes it
easier with direct buffer access, etc.
