Hi Shawn
What are you trying to say when you mentioned that it will be successful as
ibm with os/2.
At least, there was and still is a screen reader for that operating system
that is still out there in the market today with a big following since there
was about 30 million users of that operating system, but it is IBM failing
in not pushing it or advertising/marketing to its fullest over the last ten
years since it came out.
