I can't remember exactly how I got my first copy, but it was 2.1 I
believe or 1.2. I was (still am) a programmer for IBM midrange systems
(learned from my Dad). My Dad at the time was doing some Dbase
programming I think. And he wanted something better than Windows. So he
got OS/2 and I think he got one for me so I could then help him with
it. 

We both then upgraded each release. And even turned on a few clients to
it as well. We had a CPA that just outright loved OS/2 and would not
use anything else. 

But I used OS/2 until it was retired, then I bought of copy of
EComStation and used it, and now ArcaOS.
