i've changed my opinion about microsoft over the past few years.  and
the talk from my os/2 friend was an eyeopener.  this was about 3 years
ago btw.

but my point was, ibm was telling us that we had to use os/2 to take
advantage of things like visual rpg.  they weren't getting the word out
that everyone should use os/2 instead of windows, because it was more
reliable.
