[dba-Tech] 1-2-3 DOS version under XP

Hello Erwin,

I am not so excited about it, and you need not dig it out.  I was only
wondering for romantic reasons, I have no need for it, but it would remind
me of when I was a young man :)

I still remember the excitement of when I first installed, Windows 3.1 and
Word 2.0 and Excel 4.0

Best Regards
