You are more than welcome to come back.

I've been using it for over 10 years and expect to be still using it in 
another 10 years.

IBM released an upgrade about a year ago which took it to v4.51 and that 
forms the basis of a new product called eComStation (or eCS) which takes 
IBM's OS/2 and gives it a new look whilst bundling a few apps such as 
Lotus SmartSuite for OS/2 along with it.

There is still quite a healthy on-line OS/2 community - and helpful as 
ever.
