       Um, right now you can call 1-800-3IBM (here in the USA) and get a 
       brand-new version copy, with all docs, for $49.00...no registration
       cards needed, new promotion.

       (IBM is starting a campaign to saturate the market with OS/2 copies
	in its war against Windows...)

Well, I called the number in USA (1-800-3IBMOS2) and in Canada
(1-800-465-1234) and they do not know anything about such promotion.
The information that you posted is not true at this moment. The
operators could not tell me about any plans for such a promotion.

Anyway, I sold the package and I post this article, so the person who
bought it does not feel bad.
