Here is a quote from a webpage that I created having a dig at Windows circa 1996:

“The problem in the PC industry is that there is no real pressure to develop better, more efficient systems - they just get bigger with “add ons”. The market “influence” seems to be that the CEO’s secretary uses a particular word processor and it happens to be part of a suite of programs so everyone in the organisation has to use the same package - brilliant marketing but the people who actually have to use the package for “computing” don’t get any say in the features of the product. Someone’s done a course in “How you peddle excreta” (HYPE).”
BTW - In another post I report on successfully running ancient DOS software Open Access using Crossover and Ventura.
I also tried installing a Win95 app called Ami Pro (the first, and IMO still the best, Windows word processor). I managed to find a copy of the installation disks that I had saved on CD but, unfortunately, there was a corrupt file and the installation stopped.
In theory Crossover should be able to run OS2 IF you have the installation disks.
