OS/2 wasn’t bad considering all it did on an 8086 processor. The 8086 was the WORST of the 16 bit processors out there at the time. The X86 architecture is still terrible, which is why Apple is going to a new processor for the Macs, and why Intel isn’t in the mobile device market. Intel has finally lost it. The only decent fab in the world is TSMC (Tiawan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.).

I honestly gave OS/2 a try, and it couldn’t cut the mustard. Then again, OSX oops MacOS still can’t do plug-n-play.
