Umm, can't confirm this or anything, but last I heard of OS/2 Kit was that 
Microsoft had somehow broken up the humongous (sp?) package, so you 
needed to buy the SDK, the compiler, etc seperately. The prices I remember
were about 300-400 dollars per package. Also, the article I read 
mentioned that the documentation was infact in the form of three soft cover
books from Microsoft Press, available at all major bookstores. That way,
a person can buy the documentation (~$70), then decide exactly what 
development components to buy. I also remember, however, some mention that
the three books were bundled with the SDK or something to that effect.

I went to B. Dalton and saw the books myself (three volumes), and that' all
I know about it.
