Back then it was pretty impressive stuff. As were a few other things. I did
a little bit of poking around there and ended up on the page for Desqview/X,
something I've always wanted to try and play with a bit. They say:
"With a DOS TCP/IP network present DESQview/X can run applications remotely."
Does that mean that there isn't any networking support in DV/X itself? (Still
having idle thoughts about dos-type stuff with TCP/IP networking somehow.
Anybody know what dr-dos uses for a protocol offhand?
