Oh my, another immature 13 yr old who doesn't see things the way they are
 :-) Put it this way, if IBM was as big as Microsoft and were able to do
all those ultra-expensive commercial's like Microst does, then OS/2 would
have a chance to survive. Microsoft dominates ALMOST all of the OS market,
and that leaves IBM's OS/2 struggling to compete, let alone survive. If you
would DO your homework for once(although I doubt a immature kid like you
would understand what HW is) :-) then you'd find that TECHNICALLY OS/2 is
superior in every way to WIn95. Fortunately im not one of the Microsoft
"Lemming's" who have went out the first day WIN95 came to market and bought
it.

Are you kidding me?

DO YOU KNOW HOW BIG IBM IS? Their revenues _dwarf_ Microsoft's.  Did
you miss those constant barrage of OS Warp ads?  I've seen 10 times
more than I've seen of WIndows 95 ads.  You don't have a clue.

    Uhm, I may be big on OS/2 and IBM but I do know one thing...  IBM is much
larger than Microsoft.  However...  You statement is correct in one sense.  If
IBMs software department were as large as Microsoft...  etc, etc...  Most
people forget that IBM has a hand in many projects on many different scales.
It is like a bunch of smaller companies in one larger company.
