2.0 is in an early beta stage.  I don't want to hear about 2.0 unless it is 
shipping or I join IBM's beta program (which will be HUGE), or someone is 
describing some new features that will be in 2.0.

1.3 is the current state of OS/2, and will be until the next shipping 
release! Don't lose sight of that just because you have a copy of 2.0 (boy, 
it must be nice).
