Precisely correct!  It all goes back to even ring level. multiple CPU's
even up tp sixteen of them and even machine language plus assembly language
that is involved with everything even through Warp 4.52.  I think most
folks never really had access to all this unless they were a valid member
of the OS/2 Developer Group and were getting all of the update mess mostly
step by step, but even at that time not always without missing one or
getting your hoofee poked by an unknown nail when you stepped on it!  And
went crying over it to the 'crew' and got even your footsee patched up.
