Well, Windows is supposed to be the new front end 
(or "environment") to OS/2, as it is for DOS. So 
it'll run Windows for DOS binaries under OS/2. I
even heard a Microsoft sales rep say that they were
dropping Presentation Manager in favor of Windows
for OS/2.. though what the difference is I can't
say (the old Windows 2.2 was actually called "Pre-
sentation Manager" on the installation disks).

How about this rumor that OS/2 will be ported 
over to the 68000 series processors? That even-
tually we'd be running Windows binaries on Macs?
