    I know that there are a lot of problems with NT and legacy DOS apps. We
still run a bunch of '95 systems here because of one legacy app that just
totally belly's up if you try to run it on a NT workstation. NT also didn't
like a number of custom database applications, some of which are only a few
(4-5) years old. I believe Foxbase Pro is one of the apps we were having
problems with. I work with NT everyday and would just as soon not have
to....
