A fried of mine is going to buy some software that only runs
on OS/2 Presentation Manager Version 1.1.  The software
vendor said he will have to buy a real IBM or a Compaq.

He doesn't actually need the machine until about September.
Is there any chance of being able to get OS/2 1.1 on a
generic 386 (e.g., Mylex) by then?  Or is he stuck
paying the extra $ for a Compaq?

Please e-mail responses and I will post a summary.

Thanks in advance,
