This is going on the fact that I was told in this discussion that you 
cannot purchase Win95 (OEM) except with a new computer, and you can get 
OS/2 anywhere. I was merely pointing out that maybe shooving OS/2 in 
front of everyone isn't going to work because no one really knows what it 
is, why, because they have never seen it before, but MS stuff they have.
Oh, and I am not saying I couldn't get OS/2 if I wanted it, the 
difference with OS/2 is that you would have to "ask" to get it.
