Well, er..  my boss called IBM at the 800 number you provided on
Molin's Den (thanks, Dan..!) last Friday, January 8, 1993, and
IBM sold him a CD-ROM with OS/2 on it..  with nothing said about
it being a beta copy..

They said two week delivery, but unofficially to expect it much
sooner than that... so I guess we'll see when it gets here..

Heck.. at that price, I'm thinking of ordering one too..!
