I take it most of the people in the group prefer full screen when running dos apps. I personally prefer to run rbase (4.5++) in a dos window with 10x18 font (win 98). It looks good, covers about 80% of my screen, and I can cut and paste from it to windows apps instantly. I think you guys might be saying that with XP it's full screen dos or something really tiny/not usable? So does xp not have a "MSDOS Window" that has font size, cut& paste, etc?
