Hi,

In the light of PowerQuests's recent announcement on 
Warpcast (29th Sep) I wanted to update you all on my 
petition for an OS/2 executable in Partition Magic v4.

PowerQuest have been listening to us, the OS/2 community! 
In my opinion their announcement contained two important 
items;

1. Power Quest clarified that the DOS exe does recognise 
HPFS and FAT EAs, but WILL require a reboot to run.

2. Due to the response from OS/2 users they, Power Quest, 
ARE considering an OS/2 exe, I quote:

" I want you to know that your input has been taken quite 
seriously by everyone involved * by Scott Flinders, 
PowerQuest's product manager for PartitionMagic, by the 
development team, and by top management.....If PowerQuest 
does include a native OS/2 executable, it will come out as 
a free downloadable patch."

They will report back to us in two weeks with their 
decision.

Back to my petition. The response has been very good so far 
and I think that it could still be useful and something PQ 
may take note of. I plan to keep accepting names until 
Sunday 4th Oct. I will then pass on your names and comments 
to PQ on Monday 5th.

Thanks to all those who have supported this effort already, 
but please do consider signing up if you haven't done so,
