subject: Which is the best?

 [ Quoting Keith Douglas to Scott Little ]
 SL> Hell no. The software situation with a Mac is a hundred
 SL> times worse than> with OS2. Same deal with the hardware.
 KD> You honestly think that there is more OS/2 software than Mac OS
 KD> software?  By 100 times?
As the teamsters so often remind me, OS2 runs OS2, DOS, REXX and old Win16
apps. While the Mac can emulate DOS/WIN, it doesn't do it nearly as good
as OS2 (and that dual 64k/Intel CPU machine is cheating and not counted).
 KD> I'll be charitable and let you just defend the first question.
 KD> As for hardware, what do you mean?
I would have to go into the city to get Mac hardware (at least, anything more
than mice, printers and other common items), or order it via mail/WWW.
Regards,
 - Scott
