- I know it's a beta (the October one....). The point of my post was this:
-
- I have used OS/2 for the past 8 months and I think a lot of it. I never really
- liked Windows much....though it was much better than DOS. If the NT I was
- playing with - even fully funtional (which this beta clearly isn't) - is any
- indication of what the final product will be like......then I think I prefer
- OS/2.
-
- But......as I said......I could be lured away from OS/2 by a product there
- obviously better. But NT certainly isn't tha product today and doesn't look -
- to me - like it will be......
-
- But these are of course only MY opinions........:-) . I'll play with NT some
- more just for the hell of it.....but this beta is likely only confirm my views
- as stated above.
-
- Flame away if you like......but it won't change the evidence of my own senses.
