    It can run native 32 bit applications and multi task to some extent.

    I also has a Start button you need to press in order to Finish.  I can't see that aspect of it lasting long.

    If your machine has these specs I recommend you should go for it.

    Pentium 75Mhz or higher
    16MB RAM or higher
    SVGA with 2MB Video RAM
    CD-ROM 4X Speed or higher
    Hard Drive with at least 90-120 MB free space

    I'm not sure what this multi-tasking is all about.

    Does it mean that I can run multiple kitchen appliances on the same circuit?

    Of course.

    Provided you have;

    Pentium 75Mhz or higher
    16MB RAM or higher
    SVGA with 2MB Video RAM
    CD-ROM 4X Speed or higher
    Hard Drive with at least 90-120 MB free space

    You should at least be able to wash dishes while boiling a kettle.

    Hmmm, DOS it really matter?

    Windows 95 is probably not for me as I think it is far too demanding to be able to run it on an Eagle, or Osborne computer.

    I know, I know, I should upgrade computers at some point.

    Man!  It is taking me forever to type a comment on this abacus. 

    I'm holding out for Beads 2.0

    I'm beginning to think it's only vaporware, though.
