Except that it was OS/2 that was actually running OS/2, Windows and DOS better. Microsoft spent the next 15 years flooding the world with its DOS-based, co-operatively multitasking, DLL-hell suffering Windows 95/98/ME product line until home PC hardware was deemed capable enough of running NT-based Windows 2000 and finally XP (ironic considering that snarky Microsoft comment about IBM's bloated code). But as VHS vs Betamax taught us, being technically better isn't enough.

Comment I don't have time as an adult these days (Score 4, Insightful) 146
