I'm looking for suggestions on MS-DOS multitasking packages. The
environment I'll be using it in is:
* 386 clones (mostly Compaq and Telex)
* Novell 386 (v.3.10 rev A)
* Thomas-Conrad token ring interface cards (TC4035)
I've been hacking on Win3 for quite a while now, but I cannot get it to
run in 386 enhanced mode and use the network. [See posting to
comp.windows.ms for details on the fun I've been having with Windows &
Novell 386.] Rather than buy a second machine, I'd prefer to multitask.
I don't need nifty graphics stuff. I don't need windows, graphical or
character based. Just dependable MS-DOS multitasking with a (Novell)
network. You know, something that Microsoft should have given the IBM PC
world years ago. :-| [I guess I'm especially curious about Desqview and
VM/386.]
Any references y'all could spare would be appreciated!
-Scott
