 SB> Yes, I did.  That's one of the great things about OS/2:  you

 TL> Well, not until you run out of memory. ;)
        I've never run out of memory since I started using OS/2, over
two years ago (or is it nearly three years ago?).
 SB> Windows 3.1, you have to constantly be aware of the number of
 SB> applications that you've started, as well as their sizes (MS-Word is
 SB> 'bigger' than notepad).  That is supposed to have been fixed with
 SB> Win95.  I haven't played with it much.
 TL> Win 95 is much better in this respect. :-)
        As I said, I haven't played with it much.  My needs have been
met for the last 2-3 years;  I can do all I need and want to do.  So
I have little incentive in using that platform.  The only reason why
I installed Win95 is because I'm getting tired of my friends calling
me with a Win95 question/problem, and making them describe what they
see on the screen.  Now I have a much better idea of what Win95 is all
about, and it makes that process much easier.  Other than that, it
simply takes up space, much like DOS v6.2 and native Windows 3.1 are
doing right now.
 TL> ... The truth is out there
        That's right!
