Randy Scott has the following problem:

I am in a position to make a decision on an upgrade to our DP system for my company (banking-check sorter). Buying the sorter with the OS/2 operating system is the cheaper of the 3 bids and the extended maintenance is also cheaper. What stage of the product life cycle is OS/2 in, today? The other two systems use NT or WIN 95-98 but are more expensive by 10% and 15% respectively. I am having to change because the present system is a UNIX version that will no longer be supported and the operating systems are no longer being written in UNIX. Is OS/2 going to be available as a viable entity in 2 to 4 years time frame or will I the same decision to make a year from now. Thanks for your help.
