Chris, did your read the BIG GRIN when you went into defensive mode ?
Well I use OS/2 version 2.0 and the beta2.1(windows 3.1 fix) here and
from what I have seen from your posts you are in for one hell of a
suprise.
Forget OS/2 think Windows MT! and you will have an ST in an clone box.
Ps: do a search on GEnie under "kiwi" on 475,3 ...
But I do not get defensive (grin).
