   I used OS/2 a little bit in the 90s and liked it too..  Recently I started   
   playing with OS/2 again in a virtual machine, and now I'm not sure I like it as   
   much as I used to.  For instance, I'm used to being able to type a drive   
   location in the GUI when browsing the computer, and OS/2's GUI doesn't seem to   
   let you do that..  Also, OS/2 seems to need rebooting after many little   
   changes - It even needs to reboot if you change the screen resolution.  And I   
   thought Windows used to be bad about rebooting after changing..

   ah..  I thought it might be at least interesting to see anyway.
