there is one other thing that desperately needs to be fixed with the
opendos multitasking.  this is the slight problem it has when dealing
with comm ports.  does it not handle the interrupt vectors properly or
something?  i tried looking for any type of pertinant data in the source
code but my C and assembly skills leave a lot to be desired.  i'd like to
be able to run my bbs in one process and be able to do some simple word
processing in another.  i think my p150 should be able to handle that...

actually, i ran taskmgr on my 386/16 with 5 megs of ram and i was very
surprised to see how good the multitasking was.
