    Yesterday, I picked up a copy of IBM OS/2 Warp V3 at Goodwill. Mint in box never used all sealed and warped like it was fresh from the factory; that was in 1994. I have no idea why it was like that or why nobody had used it but I picked it up because it was only $5. The funny thing was that  wasn’t even looking for it. I had herd of this and have wanted to use it for some time, but I had never found a copy except for eBay.  I have an old Compaq Armada 4120 that was running Windows 95, but I didn’t want to use that if I didn’t have to. I ended up having to but that’s not a big deal. I tired to put it on an Hp I had but it was too new for the OS. The Armada has a Pentium at 160MHz and 16MB of RAM, with a 1gb hard drive. I am not having an easy time installing I keep getting some errors when i try to install but I am getting somewhere (I hope). But at any rate I think its going to be fun to use. The package came with a “Bonus Pack” which comes with some word processing software from IBM. I have some pictures below. ENJOY!
