If OS/2 goes, the "enterprise" solutions for IBM is lost as well.
After all if they are forced into Windows NT, Microsoft will try to wean
them off their big iron (if you go to Win NT, wht not switch to an ALPHA
from DEC because it hooks to it easily?).
There are a lot of corporate users that use OS/2 because it hooks up to
their IBM mainframes so well (including the shop I work in).

The loss would be like GM loosing all it's transmision production capability.
