What OS you choose to play the game under is a valid gaming issue!!  Keep
on topic, what are the merits of Win '95 against the merits of OS/2 for
gaming software?  

I personally spent many, many hours tuning my software and DOS environment
to play these games at their max!  Win'95 allows me not to loose that
effort.  It really is no better or no worse than OS/2 at doing 100% for
100% of the time, they both run games, they share a lot of commonality,
but they are not 100% yet!! Win'95 also supports my current hardware and
software, I would have to spend thousands to replace the software and
hardware that I use (and make my living at).  

The software is more than adequate for my needs, and has a tremendous
amount of vendor support - which allows me to work better and make more
money! If MS and IBM hadn't split on the OS issue, we would have the
vendor support of Windows and the tech of OS/2 in one package!!  Write
Bill Gates and tell him what a weenie he is for allowing this to happen... 

PS- there are better OS's for the IBM PC platform than either OS/2 or 
Windows/DOS!!
