- I fail to see the relevance of this statement. Very few, if any,
- OS/2 supporters on this group work at IBM - I'd go so far as to say
- that 99% of the posters here haven't seen the OS/2 2.0 source code.
- Does this make everything that everyone is posting irrelevant?
-
- For the record: I've never claimed to be an expert on Windows NT.
