subject: It`s not over. Period.

Saturday September 25 1999: Hairs a mess and tie askew Rob Basler walked up to 
Frits Spieker and stated:

 RB> I read your post.  It's still an instance of chicken little syndrome.
 RB> Just look at the subject.  "It's over. Period." That's flamebait.

Well, if people don't have the mental capabilities to read any further than
the subject line, maybe they should get out of computing altogether? I admit
though, that it was "poor wording" ;-).

 RB> I'm glad you're happy with OS/2, so am I.

That's good to hear. I made a *very* conscious choice when I started using
OS/2 all those years ago. However, even if it is miles ahead of everything
else I have had to work with, it still is "just" an opsys. It is not nor will
it ever be the "Religion" that some of the (f)lamers try to make of it.

Grtz,
