I always have at least 6 things running in Win98. Often have more. Never have had a single problem from that (many from other things). So I would definitely recommend doing that in Win95/98. If you're not doing it, you're not getting the benefit of Win.I typically have 8 or 9 things running, because OS/2 is so stable and multi-tasks extremely well. I would not recommend anyone try that with W95/98, or even NT.Harry Binswanger hb@xxxxxxxx
