Just like for OS/2, what a great success it was.
Just like for OS/2, what a great success it was.
os/2 2.1 was free during some periods in the 90s, I and several friends got it just for the free floppies. Though none of us paid for windows either, I guess it was free as well.
The development tools for OS/2 were worse and far more expensive.
It’s working right now, what are you arguing against.
What do you mean? There is a whole library of thousands of win32 games spanning more than 2 decades and the community is tracking and reporting bugs in each and classifying their level of performance.
That’s one of the most successful computer projects I’ve heard of.
It's a different situation, OS/2 was significantly more expensive than Windows, Linux is free.
