	Just for fun, a group of us tried to get it running under SoftPC and
other than speed considerations it works!!  We were able to even get a coupl
e of windows appls running.  If you think windows is slow on a 286 machine,
this is REAL slow....

In answer to the question as to whether MS-Windows will
run under SoftPC....

Yes it does.  You do not have to do anything special to
make this happen!

It doesw however run a little slow.

Flight simulator 3.0 for the pc also runs but is also
a bit too slow to play.  But then that is true for a PC
as well!!!
