Hello Krishna,

Is this the only OS/2 task switcher?
I tried one some time back, but it didn't support windows apps, so it
got removed from the hard drive.

Why run Warp 4?
It was a gift.
I wanted to try the Voice Type Dictation and Navigation features.
It included the networking features of Warp 3 Connect, which down the
road I might get around to using.
Actually I had a lot of "fun?" trying to get the video drivers sorted
out and continued to use Warp 3 for about a month.
I haven't noticed any speed difference between the two versions. Warp
4 has been as solid as version 3. Warp 3 is still on the machine. I use
System Commander and can boot DOS/Win31, Win95, Warp 3 or Warp 4. Warp
4 is the timeout choice.
If Ensemble would print in the background, it would be a perfect
combo. The only thing saving Ensemble is the output on my old printer.
When I find the time, I'll have to do the Voice Type enrollment again.
The only time I tried VTD (before using the enrollment) I got "Hello my
name is Don.";-)
Regards,
Doug
