  22. I'm wondering WHY intel coded aps like LW won't run under OS/2.
  23. What's the difference?  What does the ap have to do with the OS
  24. running on a system?  I'm probably really stupid, but isn't Intel
  25. 80xxx code, 80xxx code?  What does the OS have to do with 
  26. anything except provide the means to get that code to the CPU
  27. to execute?  I'm confused cuz OS/2 does run Windows aps, so
  28. why not LW?
