   I did play with DeskMate, but didn't use it a lot, mainly because:   
      
   1.  I already knew DOS pretty well from university, and 2.  I either needed   
   compatibility with the software I was using elsewhere, or I was using text   
   editors, program languages and other software that DeskMate wasn't relevant to.
