   I can't remember exactly how I got my first copy, but it was 2.1 I   
   believe or 1.2. I was (still am) a programmer for IBM midrange systems   
   (learned from my Dad). My Dad at the time was doing some Dbase   
   programming I think. And he wanted something better than Windows. So he   
   got OS/2 and I think he got one for me so I could then help him with   
   it.    
      
   We both then upgraded each release. And even turned on a few clients to   
   it as well. We had a CPA that just outright loved OS/2 and would not   
   use anything else.    
      
   But I used OS/2 until it was retired, then I bought of copy of   
   EComStation and used it, and now ArcaOS.
