Yeah, I'm doing all the tossing on Windows Server 2008 (32-bit), which still 
seems to work properly with DOS.  I have to keep that anyway for WWIVTOSS and 
D'Bridge, anyway.  I have heard you can move to a 64-bit OS by using a modified 
NTVDM, but I'm since this is just a VM, it doesn't matter what OS I run as long 
as things work.  

Morgul's WWIVTOSS is still doing all the FTN and FTN gating over here.  :)
