I disagree. None of the poor programmers (like JH) are responsible for
IBM's bad marketing. I don't like OS/2 either, at least if I judge after
having heard some rumours, but IBM has released some test versions of OS/2,
and I think it would be unwise (arrogant) to ignore this development.
Come on guys, Unix is fine, but not great. The net should not be so narrow
minded !
