- Last night (Tuesday, 8/11/92) the Nightly Business Report made mention
- of the fact that IBM had sold its 1 millionth copy of OS/2 2.0. They,
- IBM and other industry analysts, expected the millionth version to be
- sold in December of '92. They said that this signals that it may be a
- stronger force than was previously anticipated.
-
- In the same report they mentioned that Microsoft reports 16 milliion
- copies of Windows 3.1. Well, that is not exactly the way the
- Microsoft spokesman said it. He said that 16 million machines are
- _running_ Windows 3.1. I wonder how they know whether the machines
- are running it or if they have crashed :)?
