My main complaint is and was that OS/2 doesn't have the stability, and
IBM isn't fixing it.

As for UnTieCom, FaxWorks3.0 is just a recent release compared to how
lond UnTieCom was available, and the market wasn't really there since
day one.  My sour grapes isn't about UnTieCom didn't sell, it is that I
am stuck with a junk platform (junk because IBM doesn't fix the damn
bugs - hence doesn't support it).  I don't even want to consider
developing software for OS/2 because there will be so much I will have
to point at IBM, and I know they aren't going to fix anything.  It is a
futile platform.  When Advocates whomanaged to run down a magazine come
here and try to hype users away from the reality of IBM, I do get upset
about their lies.  Would you not?

Look, they even removed me from the os2-l list because I was exposing
their lies....this is after removals from teamos2-l, os2-isp, os2-tr.
