I found this book ~6 months ago in a bookstore, new.  I also saw it
alongside "Client/Server Programming with OS/2 2.0" in a Border's book
store not more than 3 weeks ago.  Granted, in both cases there was only
one copy, and in the first case I was the person to buy the one copy :)
-- along with the Client/Server book, which is also excellent.   I also
recommend "OS/2 Presentation Manager GPI", but with a little hesitation.
 It took me about 3 readings of this thing to figure out what the hell
was going on.  Its sooooo condensed its almost too much.  (Every try
learning C with K&R as your only reference?  Well, its worse than that.)
