I don't know.

I went to the cinema last week (? A couple of weeks ago?) and one of the ticket machines had a C:\ prompt on its screen.

Presumably that thing was running DOS...

        Isn't OS/2 still used extensively by banks to run ATM's? If that's
the case,
        then IBM would have a vested interest in keeping DB2 current on

OS/2.

        I can't believe it, they have a beta DB2 v.7.1. for OS/2, same
release
        number as for AIX.  

        I thought that OS was dead!
