BL> How can I be specific? It's your system. But the SPCUG and many

BL> mad to blame OS/2 when you're getting multiple failures per *week*.

PE> So from the fact that SPCUG has had no problems with OS/2, you conclude
PE> that there are ZERO bugs in OS/2, it's the world's first bug-free program?

BL> It is my belief that OS/2 is more buggy than Windows, which is why
BL> I won't use it, but the fact reamins that a large BBS with 12-lines
BL> and 1,000-times your user base can run OS/2 trouble-free for years.

You dont even know that, just that you never noticed when it did fall over.

BL> From that, I conclude that *you* are doing something wrong and
BL> that the fault is most likely in your hardware since that is what
BL> you changed at about the time your (and our) troubles began.

Poor old Bob, talk about a gross surfeit of dog shit between the ears. Again.

It may well be that OS2 doesnt happen to exhibit some of its quirks on
a particular collection of hardware. Thats supposed to be news is it ?

It did even on his old hardware anyway. Just different ones.
