I thought that it was something else, altogether.  My mis impression is
that the PC manufacturers were looking at it as an alternative to

Ubuntu is ready for prime time and OS2 looks like it is barely alive.
It would be better to not clutter up a Linux help site with a lot of OS2
attention.

some interesting info about OS/2 on wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OS/2

for example "OSFree is an attempt to recreate the OS/2 Operating System (Specifically OS/2 Warp 4) from scratch and licensed under the GNU GPL."
