That _must_ be why OS/2 is so popular?  Thats why games like Doom work so well
on OS/2 and not Win95? :) (Unless you wait a year and a half for IBM to port 
it). 

I think OS/2 is great.  Without OS/2, Microsoft wouldn't have a "goal".  MS
knows that if they don't do a better job than OS/2, they're in trouble.  I have
experience with OS/2 and Win95, and Win95 has already made Warp look like Mach.
