We held out, and probably were the last company with a network to switch to
Weindoz, but finally was forced to do it by the Y2K non-issue.

We had more support issues, and system failures in the first 3 months using
Weindoz than we had in the previous 10 years on the old DOS system.

The good news is this is a "metastable" situation.  (I had the term
"metastable" explained to me by being told to imagine a pyramid balancing on
its point.)  Everybody knows all of this, and there are people right now
spending their professional careers trying to give us non-Microswill
choices....so this WILL change.

Slowly, it wll get right, the economic "pressure" is to great....
Unfortunately it will be WAY too slowly for most of us.
