This says that it can't be done, and while the DOS-window can run most
16-bit software, it won't let them access any of the hardware.

Sheeeesh! Gates's boys (and girls) are making it harder and harder for
us dinosaurs!

Ah, well, there are still some DOSes around that can be made to work
with some of the newer computers....

    Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
    and remember what peace there may be in silence.
