to answer the question though, nobody used OS/2. it was a massive failure.

when i was 11 or so my mum took me to her friend from work’s place. the friends son was ‘good with computers’ and knew how to program which was mind blowing to us. he showed me what a variable was and then we played tyrian or something. he had a 486 DX with os/2. that’s my os/2 story

i was just thinking about Tyrian today. i wonder if anyone's made a mod to rebalance the weapons. come to think of it, maybe armored core will scratch the itch for blowing things up for 5 minutes and then spending ages buying new upgrades and tinkering about with my death machine
