IBM has decided to release a CDRom updating the OS/2 4.0 client. This will make installation much easier on large hard disks, USB, printers, etc

I was thinking that I would have to leave OS/2 in a year or two.

Not quite right. IBM is releasing a *new* client which will be based on the Warp" Server for e-Business" kernel. Which is quite a bit more than a set of updates to Warp4. The exact contents are still being discussed within IBM, but it appears that there will be quite a few goodies on it.

CD-ROMs with updates to Warp 4 and Warp 3 have been available from both BMT Micro and Indelible Blue for sometime. Very handy.

The newest device drivers - including those for large disks - are always at http://service.software.ibm.com/os2ddpak/index.htm
