OS/2 Warp

Post by Tachikoma_Pilot »

There is a petion going round to make os/2 open source, since os/2 shares allot of thins with windows nt if it becomes open source would that help?

IMHO i don't think this could help very much, since ms changed a lot of things since that date.

They are not sure what kernel to use but they are thinking of using the L4
http://os.inf.tu-dresden.de/L4/

:idea:

They are both trying to create a replacement for OS/2 when it is totally gone.

I think the problem was that there was a 'q' where there should have been a 'g'.

<a href="http://www.ecomstation.com/democd/">eComStation DemoCD download.</a> One can try the demo without having to install it. It works from the cd (once one makes a bootable cd using the iso image).

I have <a href="http://www.ecomstation.com">eComStation</a> installed on my Desktop and Thinkpad. I really like it. If eCS (an updated version of OS/2) ever goes away, I am hoping ReactOS is up to the point where one can use it as my main os (eCS will be around for quite a while [per Serenity Systems that makes eCS]). 8)

You wrote:<a href="http://www.ecomstation.com">eComStation</a>
But this is a forum, not an HTML document, so you should have wrote:eComStation
