MR>Red box uses your DOS and windows for support. 
Not true. Red box uses *only* your already purchased Windows for 
support.  The DOS support in OS/2 red box is the same as for the blue 
box version.
MR>The blue box (spine)

And also watch out for Windows programs that contain VxDs.  OS/2 can not 
allow the hardware access these special routines require since they have 
the potential to destroy the operating system kernel.
