|  Wait a minute. Why would any company trying to make a profit go to
|OS/2? There are so few users that they would be lucky to cover the cost

Because it's a good way to get 16 megabytes and multi-tasking and when
all those 286 users figure that out, they'll jump for it. Also, once
more applications are available (Pagemaker IS available) and dealers
start figuring out how to sell plug-n-play systems that look like Macs,
they'll make a lot of money.

Have you figured out yet why Apple sued Microsoft?
Have you ever seen the screen of Microsoft Windows 3.0?
