Didn't microsoft just "take over" development of OS/2 a little 
while ago.  All of this political nonsense is without doubt delaying
the development of OS/2.  I am beginning to question whether I can
recommend os/2 for any development work at all.  It seems that 
microsoft's desire to push windows in the near term might just
kill what could have become a very good os.  There is no doubt that
os/2 is the only technically sound operating system for 286/386/486
computers that microsoft makes.
