I am trying to get a copy of OS/2 v1.1 for
a 386 clone. My question is, where do I get
OS2 and what are the hardware requirements
for running OS2? It appears that you must go
to the board manufactuer to get a "version"
that is used with the board.

General questions:
	Why can't I get a copy of OS2 at Egghead
	like I can get a copy of MS-DOS?

	What are the problems associated with using
	special disk drivers with OS2?

	How much memory is the minimum necessary to run OS2?

	What is necessary to run PC-NFS on an OS2 machine?


thanks
