Fernando,
Autodesk has recently announced that 3DS will be moving to NT with Release 5.
While OS/2 has some great features (I know, I use OS/2 now), NT has the same
stuff. I was pushing for an OS/2 release myself, but now that the decision has
been made, I'm just as happy with NT. Anything but DOS's inane 640K problem!
Granted, NT is a little bulkier, but lets face it: Development for OS/2 has
been severly lacking. Regardless of the reasoning (or lack of), most software
developers, graphics or otherwise, will develop for Microsoft's platforms. So
I think we're better off keeping our tools in one spot where they can interact
most efficiently.
