I only mentioned OS2 because it stuck in my mind (when I wrote this email I did not
have access to a web machine to look up all the other OS's that were supported by
FPK) and OS2 was easy to remember because I was supprised they supported it.

Soooo True, I have a friend who has a 486 that he has not rebooted for 3 years, he
replaced a novel server with it and never looked back. He never needed to upgrade
it, never looks at it and until I asked him about the box in the corner collecting
dust, he had forgotten about it. It holds all his corporate data. - his novel
emulation stuff is pre-release vesions of what was arround years ago and he is
running it on redhat 4.x (don't know if it is even 4.2)

With a perfectionist group, even Alpha software is more stable than most stuff we
have been used to.
