Basically, yes.  As I mentioned, on my machine Win apps are normally run
in separate sessions, but I've also done a mix of the two on occasion.
It just depends on what I (or my wife) happen to be doing at the time.
For her, data integrity is important.  She doesn't need for a GPF in
WordPerfect to kill a client's income tax return that she's been working
on for several hours, so I have her apps set up to run in different
sessions.  Since my usage of Win apps is very intermittent, I tend to
run them in one session.  This is also covered in detail in "Unleashed"
(WinOS/2 in general starting on p.453, separate sessions starting on
p.461) much better than I could hope to explain it.
