Sure, I use OS/2.  But it doesn't do much good unless you also have 
Microsoft C 5.1 and, possibly, LAN Manager.  There isn't very much
software out there that runs under OS/2 and many DOS programs (the
ones that doink with interrupts, hardware, etc) will not run under 
the compatibility mode.  So... you've got to roll your own....
