Not very! Memory efficient, OO design and a decent architecture. Apple and
IBM with the same OS? That would have hurt Bill a little.
OS/2 was/is what we should have been using instead of X but IBM didn't want
to make MS Office available on it and I believe that had a big effect on the
take up.
Yep, that good 'ol IBM marketing...
As Bob Cringely has been saying recently, it's not that MS are brilliant,
it's that its competitors are feeble.
I think I'll just sneak off by myself with this magazine and look at some
software...
