About two months ago OS/2 was first spotted on the deja rating OS
page:

  http://www.deja.com/rate/list_items.xp?CID=12029&PCID=11878 

It was somewhere at the bottom of the list. Good news, its now at the
top and there are more OS/2 voters then Linux voters! This is what
somebody wrote in a newsgroup. 

1.      OS/2 continues to forge ahead of the rest in the 
deja.com OS user ratings. not only in overall points, but, 
note this, also in terms of numbers of user/voters, taking 
an increasing lead over even Linux. (Hint to IBM: clear the 
sleep out of your eyes.)

2.      The sheen is wearing off Win2000, as initial user 
enthusiasm is tempered a bit by newer, possibly more 
balanced, voters. It's dropped back one point, and Mac7 has 
moved up a couple of notches as more Mac users get in on 
the act. Result: *ALL the M$ operating systems are now at 
the bottom of the log. Which is not surprising. (Hint to 
IBM: wake up.)
