I should have mentioned as I did yesterday.  The biggest reason for drop 
OS/2 on my computer was my inability to figure out how to connect to the 
Internet via DSL.  As I said I did learn OS/2 during 3.?.  I did try OS/2 
when it was 2.?, but since I corrupted my 000 sector of my HD when I tried 
to remove OS/2, possibly the wrong way, I put it aside for a while.

I use an OS to connect to the Internet and write mainly.  Keep notes, 
etc.  Play games occasionally.  I have a copy of Flight simulator and a 
Gravis Destroyer Xtreme, it says.  Yet I've never taken the time to use 
either.  Not to mention there is a desire inside, sort of, to learn an 
Internet business.  Also to develop a web page, when I think about things 
I'd like to do with my computer.

TIA


Jim
