:>Why prolong the agony?
:>Just get Windows 95, you'll be glad in the long run.
:>Why you ask?  Because all major software is being 
:>developed for Win95;  Where's Office for OS/2?
:>Besides, you won't have a choice!  I mean, why 
:>have an operating system with NO support (ie, MAC OS, OS/2)
:>no Hardware support (OS/2), and no software support
:>(all Non-win OS's).  
:>
:>Besides, we all know that OS/2 and the MAC suck, 
:>What was apple thinking when making the MAC OS?
:>That we should always use the mouse?  There are hardly
:>any keyboard equivalents for using menus.  Apple must
:>think we love using the mouse every 5 seconds;  and 
:>with no 32-bit OS, the MAC sucks even more.
:>And to think, MAC freaks think that MS copied the
:>Apple interface when making Win95......sorry, 
:>BWA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! NOT!!

YOure right.  The Win95 interface SUCKS.  The MAC interface is usable.  And 
it is very possible to use a computer without touching the keyboard.  THat is 
what MS is trying to reach, but cant.

:>But don't stop there, look at OS/2.  complex beast,
:>one with no software and hardware support.

Well.. I would rather use a complex beast with PLENTY of HW support (In 
contrary of Win95 and NT.) who almost never crashes (PROTECTONLY=YES is a 
nice thing...).  I don't use DOS nor Windows programs, and I can do my job 
very well, so I don't know what you mean when you say that there are no 
apps...

:>So there's little doubt who'll win the OS Wars.
:>Windows 95, where do you want to go today?

Today I want to goto OS/2 land, tomorow I want to go to OS/2 land, and the 
day after that, I will still want to go to OS/2 land.
