I ran OS/2 for a while at home. It really was a better Windows than Windows.

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

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

The advantages of working in IT for MaBell at the Labs. I could buy anything like that I needed. Just to play around with. I still have my Warp CD, unfortunately I can't find the 3.5" boot disks needed so I can install it in a "VirtualBox" (which supports OS/2) on my openSuSE laptop. Not that they would help anyway. No floppy drives anymore.

Well I suppose I could create an image of them and put them on a USB or something. Though that might be tricky with something that out of date.
