- Last I heard, the developers would like to do it, but the company has not
- decided whether it is worth doing.
-
- OS/2 has sold 1.2 million copies and continues to sell at the rate of
- 20,000/day. When it hits the 2 million mark - and it will - there will be a
- whole lot of scrambling going on.
-
- OS/2 is gaining a reputation as a great OS. People *aspire* to OS/2.... at
- least in this neck of the woods. NZ has a *very* high per capita usage of
- computers. It has been the highest in the world, but I can't verify that
- today.
