Interesting. I had not heard some of what you posted about OS-2 on the PPC, etc.
What I do know is that I tried various flavors of OS-2 on several different generations of x86 PCs, with fairly generic video and audio cards, etc.
It was never a seemless install, and the resulting setups never stabilized to the extent that I was willing to entrust transferring my client's to an OS that I couldn't count on finding broad based support for.
Interestingly enough, I am recommending that some of these users move to Linux, because even without a single monolithic corporation, support for most things linux is only a mouse click or two away from someone else on the WWW who knows how to solve a specific problem.
