I bought Desqview 386 about 4 weeks ago, and found that it didn't do what I wanted it to do. The package is brand new (you can't tell it has been opened except for the abscence of the plastic wrap) and contains QEMM, and Manifest. Although I sent the registration card in, I will get the registration transfered to who ever buys the package. I bought it from The Programmer's Shop (original price $189) with a student discount ($150). I will sell the package for $100, NOT including shipping and handling. If there are any interested souls out there, please e-mail me at jwall@hub.cs.jmu.edu or call (703) 564-1152.

What didn't DV do that you wanted it to do? Maybe it's because I'm not a computer expert that I am in love with DV. I haven't looked at the manual since the day I installed DV and haven't had occasion to ask it to do anything exotic, but I find that my everyday computer life is perfect with DV. I load it via my autoexec.bat and have a script that automatically opens bigdos, wordperfect 5.1, and procomm plus. I keep all three loaded all the time and go to bigdos to load any other programs I might want to use. I used Windows 3.0 for a few days before buying DV and hated it. I adore DV. -- --Natalie (nm1@ra.msstate.edu)

What was that? > I will sell the package for $100 . . . Most people reading this newsgroup probably have Desqview. I am surprised you can't return the software for a full refund if you hate it so much. I guess you bought it from the wrong people or maybe DesqView does not back their product as fully as companies like Borland.

In addition, they have a 30 day "if you can't get it to work, or are dissatisfied" money back. Read the license on the inside cover of your manual, and the registration papers.

Be careful that Desqview will write the registration information to the original disk during installation. I don't think Quarterdeck will send a brand new disk even if they can transfer the registration to the new owner. Bryan
