- I think Ami Pro for PM will be a straight port of the Windows version, and
- will languish on version 3 while Lotus cranks out versions 5 and beyond
- for Windows.
-
- That is, if Lotus ever does release a PM version. They certainly won't
- take advantage of OS/2 EAs, long file names, or threading, or any of the
- good stuff OS/2 has.
-
- P.S.: Where is Stacker OS/2 now? Talk about vaporware....
