I have enjoyed using OS/2 1.1 EE but wish there were more applications
available. I really like the user interface and am using the "DOS box"
less and less.
Regarding SideKick, have any other users noticed some bugs? First of all,
when I installed it, I had commented out in my CONFIG.SYS a line with
my DLL library path. SideKick ended up seeing this REMed out line (which
appears immediately before the "real" line) and modified it with the
SideKick DLL files and killing the next line, thus corrupting the file and
making OS/2 unbootable! Luckily I figured out what went wrong and was able
to correct the problem. In using the product, occasionally notes that I
associate with appointments disappear or are badly truncated. Last night,
for example, I modified an existing note, saved it, and later referred to
it again, but it was mostly gone!
