Re: Early Client Server on the AS/400

You're right of course Nina, but i am still using OS/2 by choice and am quite 
happy with it.

To show a current manifestation of IBM's chronic problem with recto-cranial 
inversion though, Version 5 of OS/2 is in beta and should be released 2Q99 or 
so.  On top of that, the OS/400 LAN Server package is now renamed to OS/2 Warp 
Server in the  AS/400 170 shipment that I saw just two weeks ago. go figger.
