Well I desparately want OS/2 Warp to succeed so we can have some decent
competition to Microsoft.   I bought Os/2 Warp a few months ago
on it's launch but having tried Win95 I can see it is going to blow 
OS/2 away.  Not because it's much faster/better etc etc but because it's
easy to use with less hassle, less eyestrain and everyone's going to 
bring out software for it.  

Software maketh the operating system. Sorry that's they way it is.
