Hello Brian,

be glad that you did not order it, because you would most certainly
have been thoroughly annoyed if you did. What Goldenhawk calls the
"32bit MS-DOS" version is really a Windows 32bit console version of
their software. I contacted them once and asked them why they call it
a DOS version if it does not work in DOS, and they replied that "it is
designed to run from the DOS prompt in Windows, so it is called a DOS
version." Since they think that only Windows software can be 32bit,
they do not view this as a contradiction.

Regards,

Udo
