I am not involved in a OS/2 vs. 95 war, so please don't try and drag
me into it.  I was simply providing my own experience when I also
inquired about the problem with P6's and 95.  As I said, we'll _have
to see_.  The P6 may indeed crawl with '95, the Intel rep stated this
wasn't so with 32 bit apps, but I've heard contradictory statements
from several company reps on a multitude of topics at times.

As for OS/2, it's a fine OS, and certainly more robust than 95 on a
technical basis.  I do think however, that 95 is simply better suited
for the average user, and mostly due to the fact it has the developer
support and will get the apps.  That's all that matters.
