As ATARI discovered, technical prowness does not bring in Buisness.  The
AMIGA as technicly far superior to a DOS or APPLE platform.  But down the
tubes it went.  Why because the software developers wouldnt support it.  If
IBM was to publish PUBLIC domain OS2 .LIB's and have a FREE OS2 education
system, perhaps you may find industry developers start developing in OS2.

But alas DOLLARS make sence :) and software developers are going to write for
the largest market share.  OS2 is doomed, WINDOWS 95 will be forced on most
everyone (I'll wait for WINDOWS 97 thank you), and this'll all be a mute
point in 3 years.
