Hello Dan,

I repeat my message to Charles with a few spelling corrections.

I started using PCboard with v14 in 1992 under DOS/Desqview and continued
upgrading it through the years.

Then came v15.2 in 1995 with support directly under OS/2.

I switched immeadetely to running under OS/2. What a relief and it's
still going strong. I only wish I could install it on modern machines.

That is possible now with eCS and Arca OS but my wallet is too thin and
with the "demise" of Fidonet echo- and netmail I hesitate that upgrade.


Have a nice day,

Holger
