   Howdy All You Rainbow Fanatics!

   It's been a while since I've posted out here... But, I am back!
   (I can hear you all scurrying for cover!) ;-)  

   Well, because of various commitments and lots of overtime in my
   'real' job, my Rainbow work has had to take a back seat.  However,
   Suitable Solutions just gave me a swift kick in the rear with
   their release of MS-DOS 3.10B and the patches to Code Blue.
   I have Brief running on my machine!  I thoroughly amazed!  So
   much so, that I decided to give in and buy the Turbow board.
   Was I foolish?  Probably.  Hey, most people would say I was 
   foolish to buy a Rainbow in the first place.  But, I've had
   fun with it over the years.  That's more than I can say with the
   work I've had to do on my PCs.

   So, the big question... How many people out there have the Turbow
   board and what problems have you had with it?  Is there anything
   to worry about or watch out for?  Probably a bit late to be asking
   these questions, I suppose.  I've talked with Suitable a while
   back and they told me a few minor things to watch for (most of
   which I've forgotten), but I am sure they wouldn't tell me 
   everything.  So, let have the dirt (or the praise) on this board.
   Any tibits will be appreciated.  

   Has anyone figured out why (from what I've heard) 123's graphics
   works with the Turbow board while other graphics program don't?

   Thanks,
   Alan
