Microslop: *messily committing public suicide*
Literally every other OS: "MY DAY HAS COME!"

And I'm not even saying that as a criticism; there has literally never been a better time to make a move in DECADES.

loooong time since i used OS2, thought it would go somewhere, but then I thought the Amiga would and I liked BeOS

wtf would I know :)

I liked BeOS

I never had the chance to use it but those tabbed title bars were slick.

now you use nixos correct?

Try Haiku.

1980s?

Too bad their business model is totally whack for personal use.

One time purchase of $139 for 6 months of “support and maintenance” and then $49 a year for driver updates and such.

It’s like they don’t want individuals using it. I’d imagine anyone who would be willing to pay that would be a commercial user with some old software that ArcaOS technically supports. Then it might be worth the price to be able to run said software with newer hardware.

They probably don't want personal users. I remember seeing, not long ago, an OS/2 error screen in an older, but not ancient, ATM. I imagine there are other industrial/commercial machines still running it, and the technical support must be rather straightforward.

80's? I thought it came out around the same time as windowed 95. Or am I thinking of OS/2 Warp?

Now if only the company was willing to make the licensing terms a little friendlier for individual use, or even create an open-core version. We have 9Front and Haiku (and ReactOS), why can't we have a FOSS OS/2?
