I'm about to purchase a Princeton Ultrasynch VGA compatible monitor. Anyone using this monitor or have any feedback on it? How about the mail-order house: "Telemart Order Line" out of Phoenix, AZ? They quoted the Ultrasynch @ $485. Many thanks! -- -- Merat Bagha UUCP: ogcvax!omepd!radix!merat OR "radix!merat"@omepd.intel.com Radix MicroSystems, Inc.

(Sorry about the incorrect subject on my previous message!) To anyone who has DOS 4.0 & Windows/386 up and running (including our friends at Microsoft): Why does Windows/386 not run on DOS 4.0? All I get is: Error: Unsupported DOS Version. Is there a fix or will we have to wait for another release of Windows/386? By the way, Windows 2.03 (a.k.a /286) runs fine. -- -- Merat Bagha UUCP: ogcvax!omepd!radix!merat OR "radix!merat"@omepd.intel.com Radix MicroSystems, Inc.

From what I can tell, it seems to be a major fire drill. They have not been able to pin down a date when they expect it to be fixed. ------ Steve Fintel killer!jsf007

From what I It may not BE "fixable". The programs which barf at 4.0 may be checking the DOS version and only proceeding if it is >= 2.0 and <= whatever version was the highest tested (which would obviously be 3.x). -- {harvard,uunet,ucbvax}!b.gp.cs.cmu.edu!ralf -=-=- AT&T: (412)268-3053 (school) ARPA: RALF@B.GP.CS.CMU.EDU |"Tolerance means excusing the mistakes others make.
