- IBM is not going to go up in smoke. And THE OS/2 GROUP HAS SHOWN A
- PROFIT IN 1992! Nobody's going to get rich off of upgrade sales,
- anyway. It's the new sales that make a difference, and they are going
- to pay full price. And all this money we're talking about is going to
- be siphoned directly into Microsoft anyway. So stop telling IBM to
- charge me money that they don't want to charge in the first place.
