  • Advocacy for OS/2

    From Senor Pissflaps@21:1/5 to All on Sun Aug 12 20:55:56 2018
    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?

    What do your names have to do with OS/2, Double-A?

    Classic unsubstantiated and erroneous claim.
