I have IBM OS/2 2.0 running a Pentium 200MMX with 32mb of ram.

Anybody know if you can network this shit?

yes

but it's extremely difficult. OS/2 2 didn't support DHCP, or any simple internet-capable protocols. no TCP/IP stack that I know of.

it can be done... I don't know how well or how easily

I dont use DHCP, but no TCP/IP, surely there is somthing third party?

no wonder it fell on its ass.

if you really want to run OS/2, I suggest OS/2 Warp, aka 3.0

it's much enhanced over 2.x, and isn't as ugly as 4.x

Yea, I wanna copy, I got my hands on OS/2 because my dads work was binning it.

In box with manuals.
