- I spoke with WP a few days ago as well. They also informed me of the
- delay in WP for OS/2 2.0 but went further to explain that one of the
- biggies built into WordPerfect 5.2 (a $50 upgrade) for Windows is
- actually for support for use under OS/2 until the OS/2 version of
- WP for Win comes out. Not heavily advertised, as they don't want to
- step on sales of their own products currently for OS/2 1.x, most people
- would not know this. Claims to be OS/2 smart and will multithread and
- show significant speed advantages over WP for Windows 5.1.
