Ulrich;

Lotus Smartsuite/95 was released before the OS/2 counterpart because of 
contractual obligations.  Please rest assured that a native version of Smart 
Suite for OS/2 will be released this year.  Sure you can make money by 
writing for 95, but if you have a product that will run on a variety of 
platforms you can make even more money.  It is simple the more operatins 
systems your product supports the more market potential you have.  Look at 
the excellent Word Processor "Describe".  The Describe Voyager CD comes with 
Win 3.x,Win95, and OS/2 on the same CD.
