It's rather humerous talking about something that doesn't officially exist.
I just interviewed (first level) with MicroSoft, and we discussed some of
the problems people are having with Windows.  The only response I got, however,
was "Just wait for Win3."  It keeps me on the edge of my seat.

The funiest, though, is when you ask a developer if their product will run
under Win3.  The stock answer is "our product will work with any future
release of Windows."  Not even a mention of a version number when both the
inquisitor and the respondant know that the respondant has a copy of the
supposedly non-existent program in hand.

Batedly waiting for Win3,
