#123499 - I have a "boat anchor" sitting below my desk
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Or maybe just maintain a separate DOS computer for these old programs. That's what I do

I have a "boat anchor" sitting below my desk to run the one win98 application I use about once a year. With that frequency of use (and the fact that I could do without it) the cost of buying a new version can not be justified.

Anyhow, for those that (want to) have such I recommend the Linksys switch, they have many models (up to 4 computes I believe) one is seen here http://www.buy.com/prod/Link...33399.html
Hit one key and mouse, monitor and keyboard switches to the other computer.

PS I tried to google for the actual company, but the many peddlers overwhelm the serach.
