Hey, I remember you.  Terje Bergesen - OS/2  zealot.

Hey everybody, don't believe anything that comes out of an OS/2 zealots 
mouth.  Anybody who hates Microsoft is going to bash everything they 
make.  When they can communicate well its even more dangerous because 
they can persuade people to believe in the same false ideas that they do.

Heres what everbody should do.  Read, the posts of Windows 95 -vs- OS/2 
but don't believe any of it; for or against Windows 95.  Most of it is 
well presented bull shit anyway.  Instead, wait until after Windwos 95 
comes out and you read an article in it from a respected publication.
