More on Windows ME

[Thomas Mueller]

Now I see there will be much-reduced DOS and boot-diskette functionality in the
upcoming Windows 98 update known as Windows ME.  But there looks to be a trick
whereby DOS programs may still run, and it may be possible to prepare a boot
diskette to boot into DOS mode.  Still hope for Arachne, but most Arachneans
presumably will not "upgrade".
