Does anyone know if there are any 'significant' bugs that should keep me from buying a 'new, in the box, shrinkwrapped' copy of IBM OS2 version 1.0 for $49.99 at a local discount store?

No bugs, but OS/2 1.0 is useless for most purposes because it doesn't have the Presentation Manager. Make sure that you have the ORIGINAL version, including the registration card. If you can register it, then IBM will send out FREE the upgrades to get you to version 1.2. - Kevin Lowey @ 1:140/43 - LOWEY@SASK.USASK.CA - ...!alberta!dvinci!lowey
