I've always been a big nostalgic for the days when I ran OS/2. I even still have a developer install CD for OS/2 Warp laying around. I recall all the things that made OS/2 a superior OS at the time, like preemptive multitasking, and the object-oriented Workspace Shell.
I setup an OS/2 VM a year or two ago just to "relive the glory days", so to speak, and I realized that while OS/2 was one of the best OS's of it's time, we've come a long way since then. I'm not even sure that had OS/2 become widely successful that OS's today would be any better than they are right now.
We should certainly praise it's technology but, in the end, the computing world has moved on to bigger and better things.
