Funny how you say MS dosn't know that NT is the future. I have a 
reference book on W95 and it quite clearly states that as the capability 
of the home PC grows that cutting edge features of NT will migrate down 
to W95. The interface, look and feel etc as well as plugand play has 
already be migrated up to NT 3.51 beta I understand from another betazoid.
So NT and 95 make a more viable future OS then OS/2 IMHO. I have both and 
combined they do far more then OS/2 can on the same hardware. I deleted 
OS/2 recently since I fear that it has the potential to corrupt valuable 
information used by the other OS's. It just doesn't have a place on the 
new PC IMHO.

BTW this betazoid ( a college prof in computer science)  told me he is 
using 32 bit doublespace in NT and has been able to move entire CD-rom's 
to a scsi hard disk where they compress down quite nicley and fly like 
the wind. NEAT!

He also thinks OS/2 is doomed unless it radically improves before August.
I sorta wish I had back all the money and time I wasted on OS/2 these 
last two years. It wasn't worth it!
