Hi Holger,
HG> When we oldtimers have passed away nobody will know that there existed
HG> an OS by the name OS/2, Warp or eCS.
We have pretty much reached that stage already. When I tell people (mainly
technical people), that I dont use Windows, most of the words OS/2, Warp and
eCS are unknown to about 80% of them. Yesterday I was talking to a Dell
engineer fixing my work Laptop, and he didn't like Windows so at his home he
used linux, and yes, he had heard of OS/2 but didnt really know what it
was........;-)
HG> It surprises me that eCS has not even tried to market the OS in other
HG> countries.
Europe is still a major part of the OS/2 world, thats why eCS does well there.
Cheers...............pk.
