    if it works, why ? :)

    The computer my BBS is currently on is from a generation of Dell
    computers which are notorious for bad capacitors on the entire
    motherboard. I haven't had problems yet but the computer is nearly 20
    years old so I'd rather avoid any issues as soon as I can.

    I have 5.1 installed on a lenovo box here and it runs good. And my DOS boxes work. I just haven't had the time to migrate the BBS over to it
    as of yet. One of these weekends I'll do that.

    Good to know. I'm on the hunt for a dual-head PCI video card so I can
    run dual monitors on it.

    Same here, I try to remember to check it in the mornings, but don't
    always get to it.

    I've been so busy that I plain forget. Trying not to and I am working
    on moving the computers out of the bedroom and into the living room to
    make sure I hear it if someone pages me on the BBS.

    That makes sense. Might as well replace it when you can.
