- Two comments:
-
- 1. Are we talking about the same minesweeper for OS/2? The one that
- is called pmmine.exe, with the yellow/greenish squares? Except for the yellow
- color and that it has a "restart" menu option instead of the smiling/sad
- face, it's almost identical to the windows one.
-
- 2. The Minesweeper that came with some old Windows entertainment
- pack is identical to the one in 3.1 but it runs under win-os2.
-
- (But at think that ends up running even slower than pmmine.)
