Yep, it's Warp 4.
Not a bad OS, considering its limitations. It had a very efficient
memory manager, and managed to operate in 4MB, though it wasn't
exactly "running". It should've been given a better chance - I did
offer to be the IBM salesman for it to the secondary schools in the
Canterbury/West Coast region in 1994-95, but then I'd been doing
Community Task Force work with Burnside High, and I felt I had some
grasp of just what the schools needed, and it sure wasn't the crash-
happy Windows 3.x of that day. Plus I had worked recently at one of
the more highly respected secondary schools in the South island, and
I felt that could serve quite well as a calling card at any other
secondary school.
The IBM NZ CEO didn't take me up on the offer. Pity.

Hi
It's that time of the decade again - my flat's been put on the
market, and I'm
shifting my gear and self on the 13th Feb. I've got some old, but
hopefully
still usable, PCs, some of which I've had running for a while, the
others I've
had stored. I've also got a SCSI scanner, an Oki LED printer, and
some PC and
Mac carcasses that need to be taken to Molten Media before I head
off to Tauranga.
No guarantees - but one of the old but usable PCs is running OS/2.
Any takers?
My current address is 8 Arnold St, Sumner.
Thanks

Wow! OS/2! There's an OS I have not played with for a long
time....Warp v4?
(I've been told I have too much electronic equipment at home
already so will have to pass this time)... :-)
Brat.
