That's pretty cool. OS/2 needed more of those things, special software benefits of using the OS. It was such a promising platform...I remember being kind of sad

That's pretty cool. OS/2 needed more of those things, special software benefits of using the OS. It was such a promising platform...I remember being kind of sad to move along.
Linux started really getting popular during OS/2's waning days but I'm not sure if OS/2 people really migrated or wanted to migrate in that direction.
- tssva 4y agoI suspect not too many did. Most probably switched to Windows 9x on the desktop with Windows NT being the next most common choice. On the server side most of my customers used OS/2 for running Communications Server or LAN Server. These were replaced by Windows NT and Windows NT running SNA Server. SNA Server was one of the worst products I have ever had the misfortune to have to support.
- mountainboy 4y agoI migrated from OS/2 directly to linux.
