Here in Holland the OS/2 Technical Library (10G3356) is not on sale at
the special price ($300) that you can buy it in USA or Canada.

In Holland (and England) we are able to purchase the documents seperately
but the total price is :-
                        Holland - $800 + 20% tax
                        UK      - $1000 + 17% tax.

So as you can imagine, NO Private person is buying these - which means that
very few (nobody) will be programming OS/2 here.

Come on IBM, put the on-line manuals on Internet or let us buy them for
a reasonable price ($300)..

Thanks,
