[ale] bazillion year old software

[Lightner, Jeff]

Years ago I had Caldera Linux which had licensed Wabi from Sun so was able to run Windows 3.11 under Caldera.   I had to abandon it when the company I worked for went to Windows 95.   At that point WINE was in its infancy and was already known to not work with about 90% of what I needed to use on a daily basis.

You can install Windows 3.11 under DOS Box. Why you know, I don't
know. But the rest work great under dosbox.
