| subject: | Re: OS/2 Warp? |
In a message on 02-11-18 Jeff Smith said to All: Hi Jeff, JS> Years ago, I ran OS/2 Warp 4 as an OS. In recent years I kinda lost JS> track of the development OS/2. My question then is how much has OS/2 JS> improved in the support of hardware and Internet technologies? Warp 4 runs happily on old machines, which means single-kern CPU's and 2 GB SCSI partitions. If you have an IDE HD the installation partn has to be about 500 Mb, which isn't a handicap since the OS+GUI needs 120Mb. JS> Lately, I have been in an experimenting mood and I still have Warp4 JS> media here. See above. JS> Is the current releases commercial only these days? Or is Warp4 JS> still worth using today? There's a new kid in the block today. His (or her) name is ArcaOS and is available from: https://www.arcanoae.com/product-category/an-products/ Installation of this OS/2 operating system is possible on modern hardware.
