i wouldn't advise it.....considering if you try to run anything of any great 
size in 2.0, it's slower than all get out.  i am running 2.0 on a 7100/66.  i 
attempted to run Netscape 2.0 in softwindoze and it crashed my multiple times.  
the only thing i've found useful about softwindoze 2.0 so far is the DOS prompt.
(i need to use dos for my job.)
