  ->I've been using DOS, Windows, and Win95 for quite a while, and I've 
finally
  ->started using Warp 3.0.  This is the version that "uses your DOS and 
Window
  ->not the WinOS2 version.
PR->Is it possible to run Win95 under Warp the way people run Win v3.11 under 
i
  ->Win95 is a lazy, bloated OS, but the Internet toys that are available for 
i
  ->are its' saving grace.  I'd hate to lose them.
No, not at this time... and from what we have seen, probably never. IBM
has put out software to programmers that will convert much of the Win95
over to OS/2, leaving them with little work to make a finiched native
OS/2 application. They have also stated that they are "looking" into it
but don't think it's possible as the OS's "act" to differently.
I read that last part saying that Win95 is too much DOS.
