OS/2 was a joint venture between Microsoft and IBM.

Microsoft abandoned the project when their Windows project took off:

Look... I get it. Your not-so-subtle hints that I am an outright liar
have come through loud and clear, but I just don't care.

I ran OS/2 Warp v.3 and 4, and wrote some REXX code apps, and acquired
the hat and shirt: http://www.robertwittig.net/temp/OS2/

... and moved on to *nix and C/C++.

I initially joined the Yahoo 'linux' list:

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/LINUX/

...which is the parent Group to the Linux_NEWBIES list around 2003, and
am currently one of the admins on that list, since April 17, 2010.

I joined Linux_Newbies on April 17, 2005.

If you have any questions about Linux, I might be willing to attempt
answering them.

End of discussion.
