Yup.    I doubt that it is likely soon, as Dos still works fine,
though...  :)

 TC> It would be nice if someone made a BW reader for Linux. And a BW door

Probably.  Of course, my stance is, if it aint broke, why get rid of it?
If something works just fine for the purpose, and you don't need the new
bells and whistles, there's no need to move on to something else.  If an
upgrade really does have something you were waiting for, then by all
means, move up, but otherwise there's not much reason to.

Each to his/her own.  :)
