Too bad IBM didn't include Win95 compatibility in Warp 4... now a days soo 
many games (but also handy utils like ARJ/JAR) are being released for win95
that you are forced to use win95 when you want to be able to use those 
programms. And Why? Just because Bill and the rest of MS thinks everybody 
should use and buy Win95. But OS/2 still is the best around and i'm not 
giving it up yet. :)
