They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.

OS/2 was created by IBM in a fight between IBM and Microsoft.

In the 1980s IBM created the IBM PC line of personal computers.
Microsoft was making the DOS for IBM's PC line of personal computers,
namely IBM DOS and Microsoft DOS. Eventually Microsoft made Windows 3.1
and 4.1, and IBM clone business was thriving. People flocked to the
cheap IBM clones instead of the expensive Apple for personal computing.
IBM made the OS/2, and within it the "micro-channel" technology in the
motherboard, and vowed to sue any clone maker who dared copy it. Because
of this, OS/2 had only a small niche market, and PC clones and Microsoft
Windows won the PC war.

Yes I do that but JL's post just had ucsm in the Newsgroups header so I was blissfully
unaware of the topic until he replied. Anyway I'm going to kf the topic / thread now so
that'll be the end of it as far as I'm concerned. As for the OP's query, I don't know
or care!

I won a boxed OS/2 at some computer trade show back then. Yes, it was a fight between MS and IBM and I kinda liked the

I am guessing Windows 98... but would have to look at screenshots of those
screens from different versions to be sure.

A computer is useless if you cannot find software for it. I remember in
OS/2 days most of the users were employees in banking institutions.
Banks can afford to pay through the nose for some expensive word
processing software from IBM.

I can do almost everything I want to do with my Windows OS. I use free
software from the internet, or pirated software from BitTorrent. I find
it challenging and enjoyable to dodge viruses and malware from pirated
software. After decades of practice I am very good at that. My
experience was built on having to re-install Windows literally hundreds
of times since Windows 95 days to purge nasty and persistent malware.

The one thing loved about OS2 was that it could
run Windows software more stable and faster than
on Windows. And it was true multitasking.
I still use Word Pro and Approach (Smart Suite)
under Wine, which is a challenge at times.
IBM now gives it away for free now. I also use
Free Office and Libre Office. I have never need
M$ Office and as I refuse to pay their monopoly
price for it. And the fact that htey used
unethical practices to run their competitors
out of business.
I do not pirate. It is that "thou shalt not steal"
thing that Christians are commanded to follow. I do
no mind paying for software as long as it works
right and is reasonably priced. I renew my
Master PDF Editor every year without fail.
I do get my anti viruses (ESET) free as an NFR
(Not For Resale) as I resell it.
I run Fedora no-a-days with a lot of qemu-kvm virtual machines. Twelve
at last count. A few of them are
for testing ISOs and USB flash drives

Someone has to pay, otherwise there will not be any software for the
leechers to leech. You should keep paying, so we can leech. Thank you.

Human beings are inherently evil. That's why Adam and Eve sinned. I
blame the Abrahamic God for my urge to leech.

Stargate SG-1, season 6, episode 5.

Why would they go to all that trouble for it to be shown for about 5 seconds?

It's also badly done, the boot drive is empty, yet the OS is running?
