      I hear ya, I got OS/2 Warp 3 working in a Virtual Machine, if I could get   
      internet it'd probably be my main OS...  I ordered eComStation, but   
      something happened and my credit card didn't go through when I had enough   
      money to buy 2-3 copies in my account.  Later, something or the other   
      happened and I bought the Warp 3 and no longer have the money for   
      eComstation.  Any way, if there's something you need for OS/2 and it's   
      fairly simple, let me know.  I've got Borland Pascal 7 with the OS/2   
      16-bit patch to make 16-bit software.  I'd like to find the patch for   
      OS/2 Family mode applications, I know good and well they used to have one   
      for making family mode applications in Borland Pascal 7.  Those applications   
      would run in either DOS or OS/2 mode just the same from the same executable.
