XP has a built-in unzipping function. It shouldn't be hard to find.

Why do you people with 1Ghz+ PCs want to run an OS from 1990 which needs a 386SX/20 to run?

I mean, OS\2 v2.0 cant do anything but Windows 3.1 apps, cant network without LanMan which only does NetBUI correctly, and it worhtless by todays standerds, e ven for a 386.
