   Ever hear of Hitler?  Well any company that wants to take over the entire 
   market, leaving no competition, should be shot and pi--ed on.

   Best Bet, buy OS/2, wait for PINK, and take IBM's upgrade path to it.  
   Besides, OS/2 3.0 is supposed to be more like PINK anyways (runable on 
   different processors like 60xxx,80x86,RISC).

   CR.

i  find  it  really  humorous  that  the  _only_  company i have heard
desiring to have a 100% lock on all computer markets is IBM. they have
publically said this, a few years ago.

so  here  is  a comparison of MicroSoft to Hitler, when they are doing
their best to make it easy to develop competing software products. and
on top of that a recommendation to use the software of the one company
that _has_ said they want to rule the world! pretty funny.
