Just ignore me when I act this way ... I have encountered a 1/2 dozen problems
in WFW 3.11, W95, and WNT in the last few months, none of which have a good
workaround, and there seems to be no interest at MS in fixing DPMI/DOS
support bugs.  When the owner of your operating environment is hostile to
you, it's probably time to find something else.  I'm just amazed that 
millions of customers tolerate being treated this way, then buy more.  In
the future I'll try an restrain myself to "know microsoft bug, avoid
MS products unless 100% of your environment is MS purchased".  I have learned
the very hard way to avoid any non-MS drivers in the W95 environment...
