Close enough. I said after ~250 hrs, I couldn't get an OS2 setup that came
anywhere close to doing the same number of things the Windows system could
do. Even with a CD full of shareware, a pile of commercial CDs and disks on
loan, and access to hundreds of BBS' and ftp sites with OS2 stuff on it.

The BBS was a piece of cake to get up and running. After installing warp3,
all I had to do was dump the files over from the other machine, 10 minutes
later, BBS runs great. It's back on the Windows machine as I don't have
enough HDD space to go around... I'll put it back in a few days when I get
another 2.5 gig HDD.
It [OS/2] ran just as I expected: it sits in the corner and does whatever,
and gathers dust.
