Web-browser - most important requirement

of course, web-browser is the most important requirement for the standard users today.

  • we get news, movies, photos via web-browser
  • access to banks, logistics, internet shops
  • access to different databases
  • ..

Without actual web-browser the OS becomes unusable

Zero reaction

Many developers of OS/2 applications were working several monthes on a project, but get 0 feedback, 0 reaction.

1) The age of OS/2 users is high, they are watching but don't spend efforts to "send likes" to every project. 2) In current situation, it's necessary create products for 100% of the users, don't make special products.

What to do? (we don't have advice)

OS/2 can't access memory

Usually OS/2 can use 4 Gb (3.5 Gb) of RAM. BUT, For new computers (let's say, manufactured after 2017 and newer), OS/2 can access 2 Gb, 1.5 Gb or less.
