- a better future with OS/2 than with Win95, I would suggest you pull you
- head out of the ground and look around. The entire OS/2 group minus all
- the really sharp programmers that have quit already, are moving to
- Austin. Thats the land of the RS/6000 and AIX. There ain't a big future
- in a product that loses money on every sale! Have fun!
