Don't think so.

Let's just face the facts. Who knows there is something like an 
operation system called OS/2?

Certainly 99.96 % of journalist don't know the first bit of it. Remember 
Big Blue didn't make ANY promotion the last 10 years. Ten years! So, 
nobody knows, and certainly not younger journalists. Hence they can't do 
anything better than writing abaut the "previous" system.

Just let's face the facts. One fact is Big Blue even doesn't want to 
hear about it. (-:
