Isn't it mych better to continue *and* be online, read and write mail, etc? I do it everyday, but I use WinNT or Unix and crafty. But from my experience there are a lot of people who love their freshly booted DOS and find it great to sit in front of a chess screen where they couldn't do anything but playing chess. But thats all they want to do. Kind regards Bernhard
