Me too. BTW, the last versions of New Deal Office have been developped
during the last two or three years. This is not "abandonedware". This is
a commercialised product.

I guess it is a DPMI version, but I have no clue about it. I don't think
a Windows version would even be possible (it would induce a complete
rewrite) and it makes no sense. The announcement was not official, so it
must be considered as "vaporous" for the time being...

The task switcher flies with GEOS products. The task manager
(multitasking) is not supported in DR-DOS 7.xx, but some users have
reported that DR-DOS 6 task manager is supported.
