You have your point of view and millions of users who use OS/2 every
day have their points of view. Having used operating systems from PC DOS
V1.0 - Windows - Windows '95 - UNIX - MVS etc..... I have to say that 
OS/2 is one of the best operating systems I have used - given the 
inherrent instability of PC hardware and standards - lets face it, which 
games programmer has never used undocumented call? :-) - I have to 
say it is now one of the most stable OS's. 

Let's face it, Win-95 is V1.0 with all the problems an initial version will
have. It will be unstable and buggy for a long time to come. So far, only
tecchies have tried to use it (Joe Bloggs from the chip shop down the 
road isn't going to get involved in the beta is he?). So what happens when 
millions of people who have had their hopes and expectations built up 
by the M$ marketing machine try to use it? 

I am a firm believer of the adage - 'If it ain't broke then don't fix it' or 
'Don't upgrade just because Bill tells you' If you are happy with DOS/Windows
and it does everything you need to then leave '95 alone - it will only cause 
you grief. And if, like most of home computer users you have no idea what 
Windows '95 is, only that all the M$ press copy supplied to 'independant'
journalists is telling you it's the best thing since sliced bread, then you don't
need it.
