DOS support, particularly for WordPerfect is extremely slow, much slower than in W9x. Java support is far less robust than that in 1.1.8 for OS/2. I really think you have been swept up by a timewarp. Not too many people are using DOS applications nowadays. It seems that a dual-boot Linux system is the most prudent
