OS/2 has been around longer than NT, and obviously has a good core following, but I'm still putting my $$$ on Microsatan NT. What I meant by that silly, cryptic, "high-end" computing statement was software that relies heavily on 32bit operating environment, client-server type apps, networking apps. I'm sure OS/2 has its good points, but when more and more apps become available for NT I think more people will go with it. It'll take some time for that to happen, but MS has plenty of money/time to burn. Also, I believe there are more copies of Windows 3.1 out there than OS/2 (I know you knew that, but I couldn't resist) <g>. And there's my point. It's a lot easier leap from Win3.1 to Chicago or NT than to OS/2. I've considered OS/2, but I won't do it. I'm definitely holding out for NT. John Tissavary (LUNA cie)
