This is the second posting as of late where someone has lost their
CMOS.  I'm starting to think that either 1) Everyone's CMOS batteries
are becoming dead at once, or 2) There is a virus out there which we
will soon be finding out a lot more than we'd like about.

I hope if #2 is the case that it didn't get into any of the DJGPP
distrib files or the OpenDOS distrib.

<fingers-crossed for #1>
