: What's OS/2 and OS/Warp's major problem.  Not enough development for their
: OS.  IBM should have really pushed some game and app company's to create
: some software for it, or be really innovative, like microsoft, and produce
: their own damned software for it.

I second that, but rembember  that IBM does create appss and push 
developers to use their tools.  The problem is, how many out there want 
to learn SmallTalk????

Or buy a quite expensive compiler that targets IBM stuff only?

I might be wrong or not professional enough to come up with this 
conclusion.  

Had DOOM been created for OS/2 first.. then we would have a different 
picture now..
