        EE stands for Extended Edition, vice the other version which
was Standard Edition, if memory serves correctly. I also believe
that it was shortly after the release of 1.2 or 1.3 that MS and IBM
went their seperate ways on it, IBM continuing to develope it as OS/2
while MS renamed the shared source code 'Windows NT'. Though the
original specs for OS/2 called for at least an 80286, I've never
tried running any versions prior to 2.1 (which calls for at least an
80386SX).
