OS/2 and eComStation Two articles on OS/2: "IBM's farewell to OS/2 next month shouldn't take anyone by surprise. Long before Big Blue announced its plans to pull the plug, industry watchers were drafting OS/2's obituary." And, "Yesterday saw IBM cease the sale of the OS/2 Operating system. Come the 31st of December, standard support for the OS will end also. However, a significant number of companies and people continue to use it, and they are finding ways for OS/2 to live on."

Video hardware used to be a royal pain under OS/2 -- the cards made by Diamond were a real issue in the OS/2 2.0 and 2.1 days, I remember.

Eventually, people learned: Matrox was your friend. :-)

Things are better today under OS/2 and eCS thanks to SciTech's SNAP drivers.
