I was actually thinking about that in the back of my head. I've got an
older version of Warp, I might give it a spin. If it flies, I would
recommend eCS for this environment. Thanks for the suggestion.
Just to make sure I understand this though.... The way it currently
works is, she boots a windows box, starts a program from a desktop icon
and it shutdowns windows, then fires up the dos program. Do you think
it will still be a viable solution?

I didn't have to buy my radio from a specific company to listen
