Pixel can be downloaded at:
http://prf.umb.sk/artem - it's 2.8MB so it will take a while to download
the ZIP.

Why not also try the new 1.50b2 version? Remember to install in a new
directory (so you can use the one you have that works if something goes
wrong.)

DeskTop 2 - link on http://members.xoom.com/dsdp/ somewhere
BTW, coouldn't Wine be ported to DOS? A free Win 3.x would be a nice thing.

You can see at the back if there are more serial ports. I've never seen
this kind of computer but I assume that it can't be that hard (but it seems
like it is). Keep on trying! Or wait a few days an try again (I bet it will
be very easy then).
