Hi Rafa,

Power BASIC/2 was announced a few years ago, about 1993, but IBM told
them to sod off since IBM felt that there was no need for BASIC under
OS/2. Since then I've heard no more. I concluded that it had been
shelved as a result of IBM's arrogance.

Is your information more recent than this?

Regards

Dave
