- I have been seriously considering buying OS/2 v2.0 for about 2 weeks now.
- However, I heard from a friend up in San Francisco that Microsoft will no
- longer be licensing the code required for OS/2 to run Windows programs. In
- effect, Microsoft is cutting their losses and trying to run IBM's operating
- system into the ground. I would like to know if there is any truth to this,
- 'cause if there is, then I don't think I'd bother with OS/2, in spite of how
- wonderful it sounds. Any comments?
