Greetings,

Matthias

I used DESQview back in the late 80's to run TCP/IP Net and a email program with ham radio. It worked very well and I even used it on a IBM PC Jr floppy disk only system.

I remember doing a test one time by opening up several dos windows and then doing a directory listing in each. You could watch the directory listing scroll by in each of the screens. With a little bit of stutter every now and then. Really quite amazing.
