Hi folks.  I'm a new OS/2 user and just installed the 1.3 SE this week.
I've been using MS Windows for about 11 months now.  I got to wondering
what, if any, accessories and toys are being packaged with OS/2 2.0.
OS/2 1.3 has a noticeable lack of the kinds of built in accessories
that made Windows so attractive.  I'm talking about things like Write,
Terminal, the cardfiler, and, of course, Solitaire (which I believe
went farther than any other single feature of Windows in making it 
accessible to the general public). 

Are there any plans to include any of this type of nifty accessories
in the OS/2 2.0 release?  If not, why not?  Does the beta version
have anything like this included?
