   DS> Microsoft's bottom line.   
      
   A couple of years ago I received a laptop with Win10pro installed and   
   found it usable so I bought a second-hand tower with Win7 and upgraded   
   it to Win10pro while the upgrade was still free.   
      
   I don't regret it since it's a huge step forward since the XPpro I have   
   on a previous laptop.   
      
   It, Win10, isn't free from faults so I couldn't imagine running my BBS   
   under Windows, so it still runs reliably under OS/2.

   If you don't see a's, o's and u's with dots and one a with a ring on top   
   then your editor/reader doesn't correctly show high ASCII (PC8) chrtrs.
