<complete (Templates, for example). I have also briefly seen OS/2 3.0 Warp,
<which ran faster, IIRC, but again, I didn't develop a liking for it.

I have that kit and I can't use it on the 286 laptop, requires 386 minimum.
It does run real well on one of my 386/25s, screams on a 486dx2/66.

What I've found though is some of the drivers are slow and if you have some
oddball hardware it's not a good match. I've seen a PS/2m50z running
2.0 and I was impressed. Then again I've seen dos run poorly on machines
due to configuration errors.
