    That's the nice thing about running OS/2, I never get updates, and never reboot! LOL (streak is 85 days right now, I had power outage)s

    If you get an update OTA, be very very afraid.

    Then again, how could they send a box of 18 floppy disks over the
    internet?

    I remember running Warp 3 for many years without any updates... didn't even hear about Fixpack 32 or whatever it was until wayyyyy later.

    Exactly! (ARCA does update stuff, but I haven't updated in a long time
    and I am not on the latest release anyway, so no big deal)
