Famous last words!  I just installed Warp yesterday (Chris let me copy all
30 x 1.8Mb disks), as I've had a weird problem develop with 2.11, and I
don't know whether it's an obscure fault with my new motherboard, or an
OS/2 problem, hence the new version of OS/2.

I really must say that it is MUCH faster in the WPS, and also supports all
of my hardware (auto-detected all of it!), including my CL 5428 VLB video
card, and at 64K colours in all resolutions!  The new Launchpad is
brilliant, and obviates the necessity of adding oft-used items to the
drop-down WPS menu.

Too early to tell, but so far it hasn't missed a beat, and if this is any
indication of what the blue-box edition will be like, I will definitely be
upgrading ASAP.  Damn, I wish I'd left the bloody thing alone now.  This
upgrading of OS/2 is becoming quite expensive.  |-)

Regards, Bill
