Done.  I've file-attached it to a netmail message, so if you don't get it,
hassle Paul to see what he's fucked up this time.  :)

As a GUI OS, I still genuinely believe OS/2 to be far superior to
MS-DOS/Win4 (otherwise known as Win95), but decent apps for it are few and
far between.  Unless some software manufacturers get off their arses quick
smart, I may be tempted to have a look at NT 4.0, which could well be as
good as OS/2, but with far better app support.  Might need all of my 32Mb
to run it though.  :)
