Convince you to run OS/2 over what you have now... Ok, dx4/100... How much
ram?? That's not enough!!  Just kidding  I'm running a dx2/80 with 16
megs... I play Terminal Velocity alot, and the only time I see a lag, is with
2 doorgames going... Worst being LORD and Usurper.... I can do anything I
want, and not worry about it... And, if I can get some $$ together while ram
is cheap, I'm going to go to at least 20 megs... Prob witht that is replacing
the 16 megs of 30 pin with 16 megs of 72 pin... As for reliability, I reboot
only when I make changes to the config.sys... I don't worry about coming home
to a locked up bbs anymore (had some hardware conflicts before that caused me
much grief).... I'd just check that your hardware (like cd-rom drives, video
card, and such), have support under Warp... I've got a Logitech SCSI sound

OK, Next question.... My DX4/100 has 1 72 pin simm. Do I need to get another
1 72 pinn 8 megger, or can I put anything in there?
     There are converters that wil allow you to use your 30 pin ram in a 72
pin socket. I see these in the Computer Shopper all the time.
     I have heard conflicting arguments about having Windoze95 AND OS/2 on
the same system. Any truth to this? Since Windoze95 is an alledged operating
system, would I be able to run Windoze95 through OS/2 or need the dual boot
system? Also the 486DX-100 is a Plug-N-Play mother board. Will I have
problems with the add-ons?

     One other person says that DesqView is a memory hog, but I haven't seen
too much of this. I do like the fact that a tape back-up can be run without
shutting down the BBS. Well, this is what I hear.
