- Ever hear of Hitler? Well any company that wants to take over the entire
- market, leaving no competition, should be shot and pi--ed on.
-
- Best Bet, buy OS/2, wait for PINK, and take IBM's upgrade path to it.
- Besides, OS/2 3.0 is supposed to be more like PINK anyways (runable on
- different processors like 60xxx,80x86,RISC).

- CR.

- i find it really humorous that the _only_ company i have heard
- desiring to have a 100% lock on all computer markets is IBM. they have
- publically said this, a few years ago.
-
- so here is a comparison of MicroSoft to Hitler, when they are doing
- their best to make it easy to develop competing software products. and
- on top of that a recommendation to use the software of the one company
- that _has_ said they want to rule the world! pretty funny.
