- I have EXCESSIVE hours already invested in trying to give OS/2
- the benefit of the doubt (I have installed GA and SP from scratch AT LEAST
- 10 times -- do you know how long it takes to feed 18+ GA disks in PLUS
- 14+ SP or CSD disks in?????? -- and I AM TIRED!)
-
- I love the POTENTIAL of OS/2 but, realistically, one gives up
- after Lucy pulls the football away EVERY time....
-
- With my 486SX 25 MHZ system, EGA monitor, 8 MEG SIMM system,
- I cannot get WINOS2 to work at all after installation of the "CORRECTIVE"
- SERVICE DISKS (even though it worked after the GA), I cannot EVER get DOS
- from A: DIsk to work, and I cannot get the Notebooks to keep from clipping
- the tops of many pages away.
-
- And MY complaints are HARDLY the ONLY ones. This newsgroup is
- replete with accounts of problems encountered by many people.
-
- One wonders, as a customer, after so many dissappointments, how
- IBM could have loosed such a problem-plagued package as the CSD on its
- users.
-
- I AM TIRED OF TRYING TO MAKE IT WORK!
-
- Thank you.
