When people say that Windows is crash-prone, and/or often

drivers.


Were you working there when Bill Gates was using OS/2 on his
own desktop?


I was there during the period of OS/2's brief popularity.

Was OS/2 particularly crash prone, or are you referring to the fact that it
needed the Presentation Manager for a graphic interface?
