OK more machines today. When the current Windows 3.1 based Apps release a true Windows NT version those Windows 3.1 users will follow. Hardware is shipped with Windows already installed how do compete with that? We, as a software company, have regular requests from existing users today for Windows software. We have had very little calls about OS/2. We could not afford the extra time and effort to support an OS/2 based product not to mention the extra programming effort. Today how would any of the smaller software development companies see this differently?
