Greetings!

	I am looking to buy an early copy of OS/2 that will run on a 286
computer. My reason? I am seriously considering upgrading from my 286, but
to what I don't know (yet). I use Macintosh in my lab and am impressed with
its GUI. But, I have been hearing good things about OS/2. I would like an
early copy so I can play with it on my present system and see what it is like. 
Also I would like to try my hand at programming in OS/2!

	So, if anyone has an early version of OS/2 hanging around that they 
would like to sell (and that will run on a 286), please contact me at 
G5000005@nickel.laurentian.ca.

	Oh yeah, I have a 12 MHz '286 w/287XL coprocessor, 40 MB HD and
 4 MB of RAM (if this makes any difference).
