I'm curious as to what they talk about. Certainly not the new features
they just discovered in the latest version or anticipating features of
the next release. I can imagine it now...
User1: "Sure sucks that nobody but us uses OS/2 anymore. It's the best."
User2: "Ayup, sure does. It really is."
User1: "Check out this 15 year old program we had a demo on way back in
the hay-day."
User2: "That's still neat."
User1: "Yeah, it uses 256 colors."
User2: "It's just like a rainbow."
User1: "Say, where's Shimmy?"
User2: "At home writing confusing emails to KPLUG."
User1: "You going to Denny's afterwards?"
User2: "Nah, Denny's makes me irregular."
User1: "Ok, see you next month! We're going to be having a demo of
pre-emptive multitasking!"
Here's some history for you, "MS OS/2". I've never seen it written that
way before. I always saw it as "IBM OS/2" as this was just before I
started getting into computers.
