Hi!
I am interested in installing OS/2, haven't used it since Warp 3 was launched. Which version is used now? Does it work smoothly with modern hardware? Is it possible to install OS/2 and keep my WinXp installation and it's programs? (My girlfriend would kill me if I deleted the Windows installation) And finally.. Where can I find updated info about OS/2 and programs?(Didn't find much on ibm.com)

1. Serenity Systems developes OS/2, licensed by IBM. It's called eComStation, version 1.1 is the latest. 2.Modern hardware is no problem. 3. Yes, your girlfriend does not have to kill you. You can use airboot as bootmanager. 4.Have a look at www.ecomstation.com , do also look at www.os2world.com and have a looka at www.ecomstation.it/ecsoft2/. 5. Theres lots of interesting stuff out there!
