Peter,

Hmmm... what do I think of WARP. Well as soon as I get a chance i'll be
installing it both at home and work. answer your question?<G>. At work I'll
soon have a direct internet connection, and WARP's Infobahn goodies are very
good. And since I finally got to play with it on a machine similiar to my home
pc(486/33 8megRAM, 150,340MB hard drives) I'm anxious to put it on. IT IS
FAST. I've also seen Chicago/Windoze 95, or 9? and it is long on cutesy
wootsey, papers fluttering across the screen when you copy files, and so on.
but it will be a v1.0 code, despite the fantasies that Bill Gates may have to
the contrary, it will probably have lots of problems. easy to imagine when you
consider the accessory calculator in both Windoze for Workgroups and WinNT
don't work properly. try this 14.32-14.31=0.00(according to the display), take
the square root you'll get 0.1(so the internals of the calculator is OK, it
just can't show it).

I'll soon be using WARP. along with my ever growing array of NATIVE OS/2
programs. such as MESA/2(spreadsheet) Golden Commpass(CIS navigator),
VX-REXX(visual programming environment), Galactic Civilizations(a killer game
that I was a beta tester for), And I'll probably get the new release of Corel
Draw when it comes out.

Avoid the Darkside, Use OS/2 2.1
FEEL THE POWER OF 32 bit MULTI-THREADED PROGRAMS
You'll never use a kludgy gui on top of an interupt handler
again. That's windoze/dos in case you don't know.
