  Ugh... can't stand SCO... :)  There is always the possibility to run in
emulation.  Linux DOSemu now supports full Win 3.1 application support in
X Windows, and it's a free package.  Linux is very nice as a platform.
Besides being freeware, I can run Macintosh applications (with a Mac GUI)
including some System 7 apps, MS-DOS apps, and MS-Windows 3.1 (386
enhanced too!) all in one X screen.  Not to mention the traditional UNIX
applications I can run on the POSIX and optional iBCS2 Linux platform.
Granted, nothing ever works 100% in emulation, but it suits my needs.
