Considering all the similarities between OS/2 and *IX i wonder "why OS/2 at all". I do not see REAL advantages over *IXes. As far as i know Microport offers a package which allows one MS-DOS task under their UNIX. So this offers all OS/2 does. Any comments ?? -Torsten ..mcvax!unido!tb ( don't try the above adress) D
