subject: Should I buy Merlin?

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the reply!..I also use Win95 mainly for stuff like MSIE 3, MS
¨Frontpage and graphics/rendering etc.  If I buy Warp 4 and want to create
a ¨dual boot system should I install Warp first and then 95?  I ran Warp 3
for a ¨while and then changed to 95.  95's setup program spouted some bs
about ¨finding OS/2 on my hd, but it installed and ran prefectly.  I used
dual boot ¨and not boot manager.

If I use HPFS on my boot partition, should I install 95 on another
partition ¨and use Boot Manager? (previously I had 95 and Warp 3 on the
same partition ¨using FAT).

So if I run a native OS/2 comms prog like ZOC I don't need SIO????

I also heard that there was a bug in CHKDSK when Warp 4 was first
shipped??..I ¨hope IBM have fixed that by now!

Thanks and cya,

Ian
