I'm guessing you never ran Lotus Smartsuite for OS/2 on OS/2 then?
That piece of ***** was so buggy that it was part of why I shifted to
a Powerbook 520c running System 7.5. I've never had anywhere near
the stability issues that I had with Lotus Smartsuite on OS/2 with
any Mac app. Remember, IBM owned both Lotus Smartsuite and OS/2 at
that time. The other thing that convinced me to switch was I saw the
writing on the wall for OS/2 when Windows 95 was released.
