- Ah, one of these DOS bigots who says "PC" and means "DOS"? Well, I had
- heard that of the PC operating systems in common use (DOS, OS/2,
- Netware, Unix) version 7 was going to be out on all of them EXCEPT DOS.
-
- But I'm no spokesperson. I gather that the OS/2 version is ahead of the
- curve, but that's just because (IMHO) OS/2 is the superior operating
- system (yeah, go ahead and flame me ;-).
-
- There is supposed to be an Official List of which ports the Developer's
- Version of Oracle7 is now out on; anybody have it? Anybody want it?
-
- Cheers.
