[Am-info] MICROSOFT WATCH

[Mike Stephen]

Mary Jo Foley.  How many os2 users remember her name.  It went
down in infany.  Mark Jo Foley was responsible for throwing
out the vote that gave OS/2 Warp the aware for the most
innovative software (for the third time).  After winning it
twice in a row, Foley had it thrown out when for the third
time OS/2 was held in the highest regard by the users and
readers.  Rather than have it keep the award three years in a
row, Mary threw out the results and decided that NT would have
the award.

Every Year Foley would announce the death of OS/2 From 1995
onwards we could count on Foley doing her best for the minions
at Microsoft.  At ever possible point she would advocate that
OS/2 is dead....

Thanks Mary.... for your support!
