I wish to state that I am an advocate of the use and deployment of OS/2
for both specific and general computing tasks.

Thank you for your time,

Senor Pissflaps.

What a nice on topic post for this group!

But what a peculiar name you have, Señor!

Haven't you ever thought of getting it legally changed?

Because that might be just what OS/2 needs is a name change, to get a new image!
Don't you think "OS/2" is awfully stodgy?
