[comp.os.os2] Release numbers and dates

sjw@eniac.seas.upenn.edu (Steven J. Walsh) (02/21/90)

I was just curious...
I believe in August I read a mini-article in PC Magazine that said
IBM was expecting to release v1.2 of OS/2 in early 1990 (which it appears
they have done) and that they would release v2.0 in the summer.
They also said that v2.0 would have extensive font support, using
the same algorithms to write to the screen as well as printers,
providing true WYSIWYG.
Is any of this true or should I just forward this letter to Santa Claus?
