- If someone else has not already done so, I'll put your last post on
- CompuServe this evening.
-
- For the newcomers to this group, I'd like to point out that back even before
- there was a comp.os.os2.advocacy, Bob Cain was a regular contributor to
- comp.os.os2.{misc,programmer}. He was a near-FANATICAL OS/2 supporter.
- If I remember correctly, he is also a former IBM employee that remembered
- his former employer fondly. Definitely not the sort of person that
- would leave OS/2 easily.
-
- I too was an OS/2 supporter then (though not as big a one as Bob Cain), but
- due to similar silliness on IBM's part, changed mainly to the Microsoft camp.
