Microsoft "The words coming out of Microsoft are quite bullish, but the numbers aren't, at least according to Wall Street. The problem is those words won't match reality mainly because MS does not grasp the situation it is in. The problem, credibility, the solution, Google."

Microsoft is still selling a member of the Windows 95 family? Where?

OS/2 is still being sold as eComStation. Same basic architecture as OS/2 2.0.

Windows XP, on the other hand, is the continuation of Windows NT, not Windows 95. And OS/2 is older than it is, so it would lose too at this point in time. :-)

Maybe you mean "longevity in the eyes of the market", since most folks think OS/2 became unavailable in the 1990's. That might be true.
