OK, I will delay downloading this version!! There are many of who 
still think 98SE is by far the best version of Windows they ever did 
and don't want to go down the slippery slope of bloated gimmicky XP.

Since I now have a laptop which will run Windows 98SE, a Compaq 
Armada which replaces my old Toshiba 386 machine whose backlight 
failed just before WPX, I used SD Windows, actually 11.06, for the 
first time in last weeks Club Challenge. I have to say that I still 
prefer the DOS version... (and SDWin is still effectively the DOS 
version running in a Windows shell).

Is there any update on the problem of being unable to get a full 
screen display on 98SE after the Border function was introduced 
sometime ago? Also I note when SDWin is running it takes priority 
over the rest of Windows - when I wanted to open Control Panel to do 
some checks I found I had to close SD first..
