The astute observer would notice that the above approach is what MicroSloth 
has done with Windoze NT. Note that their box comes only on CD-ROM and 
costs $600. 

Disclaimer: All Windoze NT info is outdated the instant you read it as 
MicroSloth is probably pushing back the release date again as we speak.

(I love OS/2!!)
