 ML> I followed the FE situation for a long time here asking for 'the
 ML> OS/2 version'.  Was told it had never been released.  

that's rather funny... i don't know who told you that but they are/were incorrect...

 ML> Also was looking for and OS/2 version of Allfix.  Both to upgrade 
 ML> the 1:117/100 HUB to solid OS/2 instead of DOS. 

i'm not sure about allfix... i believe that i am running the OS/2 version
but would have to go and dig about on that machine to find out... i may
have just left it as the DOS version in case i ever needed to jump back to
DOS...

 ML> Can you furnish me with any of the details on any of this?   
 ML> Thanks! 

from my files list...

for BSO problems two days later...
