I located on Microsoft a long ago FAQ that tells of not two,
but three Windows with a 3.
I place the FAQ URL at post's end, and its very short
and give extra info about Bill Gates thoughts on IBM.
A neat little history with Microsoft saying IBM is bad
to allow their programmers to write unstable code.

Windows 3.1
Windows 3.11
Windows 3.11 for workgroups

If I read correctly the 3.11 is 3.1 with just a few changes,
and a very few additions, that both can be added to a 3.1
to make it into a 3.11. But the 3.11 workgroup is major
and I think can't be made from a 3.1.

I'll dig deeper into access-4-free.com in the next days,
and if they require only the 3.11, that the FAQ I read
I think said I can download the files to make 3.1 into 3.11.

Yes I obtained that 32s stuff for my Windows 3.1
that makes it able to run some 32 bit programs.

"...are you using the smartdrive disk cache program?"
Yes here too, and I can't remember if DOS had this,
but where both DOS and Windows had both I read
that run the Windows version, not the DOS.

My memory is so small that I won't notice if I lose it :o)
