Without trying to belittle the sender, I need to point out that the
differences between running on DOS and in a native 32bit environment like
Win95/NT/OS/2 are so vast as to stagger the reader when a comment like this
one is made. The Win95 installed user base is growing at an astronomical
rate. A true Win95 (and I do hope also an OS/2) native port will allow
features and abilities well beyond the current ones and will be a MAJOR factor
in the impulse purchase buying of the general public. And from there, it will
be a shorter (although still arduous) task to enable the nativeMacOS
functionality. ARDI has great vision, true commitment, and is headed in the
right direction. I would not have written this except that I think ARDI from
time to time needs to receive encouragement for their vision as well as their
products.

I'm disappointed in the idea that E3 will still not allow the true MacOS
to be placed on top of it. If ARDI is planning a Win95 specific version,
that could be AFTER the MacOS can be placed on top...it just seems that
the DOS version is fine for Win95 and more folks might like to use System
