   DS> MM> I am running my bbs under windows 10. its going to be interesting.   
      
   DS>What BBS system?  Does Windows 10 have any support for 16-bit DOS based   
   DS>programs?  Does it have ability to run XP in a virtual window?   
      
     Windows 7 32-bit Professional does. I don't know about Windows 10.   
   However, for the Virtual Window for XP mode, you have to set it up for   
   such in the BIOS...if you have the hardware that can support it.   
      
     I got a good deal on Windows 7 32-bit from Amazon last week, and it   
   arrived today. However, I'm waiting for a break in the weather   
   (thunderstorms forecast here through at least Friday), so I can do a   
   full data backup before installing the new OS...then restoring all the   
   data.
