Hi Kal, No, Novell acquired DR DOS about the same time it acquired WordPerfect and effectively killed both products, as it did Unix. WordPerfect was rescued by Corel. DR DOS became Novell DOS and died a slow and painful death. Holly D. p.s. I just read Jerry Heidtke's post. His answer is correct and more complete than mine. As Corel rescued WordPerfect, Caldera indeed rescued DR DOS and brought it back to life. I downloaded OpenDOS some time ago from Caldera's website but have not yet tried it or compared its multitasking capabilities with DESQview.
