(** Moderator's note: The following note refers to the fact that the
Win32 for OS/2 Project is in the process of converting Quake 2
from Win32 to native OS/2 code as a test for the project. For more
information about the project, which aims to be able to convert
most Win32 applications, see http://www.io.com/~timur/win32os2.html **)
Before releasing an official demo version, I'd like some more people
to try out Quake 2 on their OS/2 system.
To qualify you need to own Quake 2. I make no guarantees if it will run
with a cracked version.
10 people will do:
	- 5 with a Voodoo card
	- 5 without one (different video cards; I own a Matrox Mil. 2)
What I know right now is that Quake 2 won't run on Warp 4 without
fixpacks due to Open32 bugs. Also, FP 3 is a no go too as it contains
a kernel bug that affect the converted exes. (traps) So either
upgrade to FP5 or don't mail me.
Warp 3 users should be able to run Quake 2 if they have a fixpack level
of 30 or above. This is a guess, so I need some people with Warp 3 too.
