I think some of it is a big improvement, including the Fonts and D/A support. Ok, here are the problems: 1. Slow redraw while between loading and exiting programs and eturning to Loser. 2. Dynamic color switching doesn't redraw the screen right. 3. Floppy formating didn't work right. Got thru the verification, but I used CTRL-BREAK when it was taking about 6 or 7 minutes to initialize the disk! 4. Lemmings dies is 256 colors. I know I corrected this in 1.99m by changing my application memory to 8 Megs. I haven't done that yet, but Executor should warn you when there is a program that wants more RAM. 5. For some reason you have it drawing the whole background behind the mouse when it is moved! This slows the system down considerably. Why not just draw the cursor? Oh, nice job with the drive recognition. I even got it to recognize my drive z:! (It is compressed. I had option for lettering. I currently have 8 DOS drives!) -Dan Guisinger
