OS/2 and eComStation In the dawn of the end of IBM's OS/2 Stardock's CEO Brad Wardell pays his respects to the venerable operating system by writing a long article about the history of the OS. Stardock was one of the major third party software houses for OS/2 back in the day and so Brad has lived OS/2 from up close.

I don't particularily care much for open sourcing OS/2 either for the same reasons as above. I beleive the better option here is to take what was good and innovative from OS/2 and learn from it, possibly even using the principles in Linux/BSD. You like the OS/2 PM? Do what Windowmaker/Gnustep did - make your own to run native as a window manager/environment.
