- I also read the same article and while Dvorak comes down on the
- side of OS/2 he also comes down hard on OS/2 fanatics. Read the
- article and maybe some of you OS/2 fanatics will tone down your
- attitude a little and let OS/2 sink or swim on its own merits. As
- for Zachmann I'm sure that he's not hurting for income.
