      Well, Jeff,
      Do you think the low count of OS/2 users may be simply because they
don't want to jump through hoops to upgrade the load in their Couriers?
      I'm an OS/2 user, with 8 Couriers in operation, and I've learned long
ago to simply visit the "ftp.usr.com/pub/usr/dl05/" and grab the latest SDL. 
It's much faster than trying to get web access, especially when your site is 
plugged with people trying to get the newest loader in the first day of it's 
release.  And I also don't have to put up with some program deciding to dial 
long distance from here to Skokie, most likely at peak rates.  Sure in the US 
phone rates are cheap, but calling from Canada, well that's about a buck a 
minute or possibly more during peak times.  This may not be much, but a buck 
here and a buck there sure add up very fast.
      And I can state emphatically, that despite the stories from the windoze
camp, OS/2 is neither out of production, nor no longer supported.  I'd say 
that you owe OS/2 an apology for that bit of mis-information.
                       .....Bob
