Sorry, but you're wrong. Windows NT and Windows/95 both pre-emtively
multi-task, whilst Windows 3.11, 3.1, 3.0, 2.11/386 and 2.1/386 all
co-operatively multi-task.

Windows NT and Windows 95 are both 32 bit operating systems, whilst Windows
3.11 has a number of 32 bit sections.

Windows/95 will ship more copies in the first few months than OS/2 has in all
its life.

The future of OS/2 is as good or bad as the future of the Mac, the Amiga, and
all the other "interesting but not mainstream" products.
