I know a lot about OS/2. I covered operating systems for PC World from
1989 to 1993 and used every version from 1.0 to 4.0. It was
technically advanced in certain ways but utterly unsuitable for the
average users IBM somehow thought would buy it. Microsoft had no
choice but to unchain themselves from that sinking ship.
