The kernel was fundamentaly 16 bit, hence the 16 bit asm device drivers.
Microsoft wanted windows api on os/2, but I'm sad no. Not surprisingly since ms was 100% in control of os/2 nt, they switched the primary api to a 32 bit windows api.
Now that the OS/2 betas of football have shown up, Ms had mvdm working on an os/2 1.0 prerelease in 1987!!
I used to think it was ms who screwed up os/2, but it's pretty clear that Ms could have delivered a killer 32bit os in the late 80s!
Get ready to fight cache settings and you'll need a sub 8gb disk, preferably sub 2gb disk.
The ide cd detection is a joke. Also have MS-DOS with edit handy to go in and fix config.sys... and make os/2 boot disks backups so you can run chkdsk, since os/2 can easily get itself into a scenario where it can't repair itself.
Slashdot Mirror
Did the state invest? Are they preventing someone who has a put?
Why not add in the Vic 20, and the 128.
Totally
Let them appeal to the Tumblr/Twitter crowd, I'm sure they all license RSA crypto.
PGP forever!
Police boxes.
Remember when gasoline had lead?
lol. Remember that time traveler_0 from the 90's?
their days are long gone. I can't believe anyone wants their name.
Children have never noticed that early Linux is not GPL. Just as the same for early GCC, binutils, gas, emacs, bison..,
Are you me?
One of mine gets hundreds of downloads a week. There are other people.
I love how I can organize binary releases, on sourceforge, vs what on github?
new owners, and they stopped that a long while ago.
Science is about consensus, not challenging dogma?
Taiwan is China, and Japan will be soon!
it's pretty self explanatory.
Remember when stuff like this broke here?
not surprisingly, it didnt work.
Try $99! QuickC for Windows, and turbo c were both $99
Lol, you wish. It's 16 bit.
Yep, free of IBM's interference OS/2 NT lives on.

IBM never got the kernel out of 16bit space
Last year it was at a hostel iirc.

Sp3 had pnp. USB wasn't really in use until 1999 anyways, and by then we had 2000
I can't see this as any compelling reason to upgrade though.
Maybe if it wasn't closed source.
there, a poop joke
