IBM: "All your old Windows applications will integrate seamlessly with OS/2!"

I ran OS/2 for a while at home. It really was a better Windows than Windows. Back at that time I was on AOL (among other providers), and the little SNERTS as we called them, would try and IM bomb people. The pure Windows platform would choke and die, requiring a reboot. The OS/2 platform took it all in while I IM'd them back, mocking them and laughing at their impotence. :-))

After a while they got the message and never bothered me again. LOL

I don't doubt it, at least for some applications.

I always wanted to try out OS/2, but it was pretty pricey.
