I don't see the connection.

It is not emulated, it is OS/2 base code that runs native. You must be
aware of that.

As I've said, I wasn't interested in compatibility stuff.

As if bill gates would allow OS/2 emulation to be built into HIS
operating system rolling eyes

Why not?

Gates and co. did NOT write NT from scratch. They based much of it on
the code developed at IBM for OS/2 when there was no mickysoft.

"Based"? What does that mean?

Really, anyone who was around at the time, or who bothers to check
even for a moment knows that.

Well, I _did_ check, and they _did_ write it from scratch. Of course
they adopted ideas that had been used in other various operating
systems, but every OS does that.
