It is true it won't work with 32-bit code.  FlashTek, Inc. (who I work for)
will be selling all future versions of what is now known as the Zortech 
debugger ZDB.  We were just discussing the OS/2 2.0 market the other day...  
How many people are there that would like to see ZDB (soon to be called 
FlashView) work with OS/2 2.0 executables?  Which compilers should we support
if we decide to support OS/2?  Borland of course, probably Zortech, if it
isn't too much work.  What about IBM and Watcom?  Is MS going to have 
something people are going to use for OS/2?  What is your compiler of choice 
right now?  Send me some email if you have opinions on the subject.

Joe, ...doing my quick and dirty market survey...
