- Nah. That award really belongs to good ol' Will Zachmann (who was quietly
- padding around the Windows & OS/2 Conference I attended recently)
- vociferously and vehemently trumpeting that OS/2 will take over the

- Where? I have both the August 17 and August 24 issues in front of me (the
- latter arrived yesterday) with nothing on that. Also, if that were true
- then the FTC would definitely be doing **something** with the information
- and they appear to be strangely reticent.
-
- This leads me to believe that if there are allegations, once more they are
- either sour grapes or hot air.
