The answer is even simpler... SUPPORT. For the last time, count on your fingers and toes how many developers there are for OS/2. GOOD. Now, count each brain cell in your head for the amount of developers for Windows 95. GOT IT? There are very few companies who support OS/2. And those which do are usually small. When I see Origin or Electronic Arts produce OS/2 native apps, then maybe OS/2 will look good but not now! BTW, you claim that WinNT isn't good for most people because of the steep hardware reqs... OS/2 requires just about the same amount... I wouldn't dare run it on under 16 Megs of RAM. John
