You don't even have to wait that long. I've got the latest release of 95, and
I can tell you that it's allergic to DOS. I wouldn't even think of installing
anything that was based on this antiquated OS. You can be sure that Microsoft
won't be too disappointed when DOS-based software is altogether dead and gone,
and it's pretty much their call anyway. Cablesoft is about 10 years behind
the times here, but I can understand why they are sticking to it, since with
Windows slowing it down considerably, there wouldn't be any reason for anyone
to use it. However, the time is near when only those with really old gear
will be able to run this anyway, and with the lack of success of their Trader
software, I'd say that Cablesoft has some serious work to do to even stay in
business.
