Hello Ed,

 EV> How does Warp 4.52 compare with Warp 4 and Fixpak 12 that Holger uses?

Warp 4.52 is beyond Warp 4 and FP12.  For example, Warp 4.52 will boot from an 
install CD; Warp 4 doesn't if I remember correctly.  Warp 4.52 has several 
improvements in the back end process that Warp 4 doesn't have (and several 
fixes that Warp 4 doesn't have, such as TCPIP 4.4, which is an updated TCP/IP 
stack).

FWIW, Linux can also use JFS easily, so if you have an OS/2 drive that's JFS 
formatted, Linux can read it easily and I -do- believe that there's a JFS 
driver for Windows (I'll need to look that up).
