I can in part. MS OS/2 1.21 is coming out very shortly. The follow
on version of OS/2, which the press are referring to as the 2Mb OS/2
is not MS OS/2 1.21. As yet, a smaller OS/2 has only been part of
some technology demonstrations - no release dates have been announced.

We are still recommending 4Mb memory for a reasonable configuration of
MS OS/2 1.21, in which you can run network software and a few applications.
