I the whole idea behind OpenDos was to  stay compatable with low end
machines? this is why it
isn't being compiled by a 32 bit compiler? i think that they should have
two browsers, one for 
people can that can rub a program like arachne, and then another like lynx
or nettamer...
 My only concern is this: the easier it is to set up a dos system and its
bundled applications, the more
novices will likely be able to use it...

if i am mistaken on any points i am sure someone will correct me <g>


Sincerely,

James fudge
