I used OS/2 for a while also. Mostly ran Windows 3.1 under it. I had a bare
minimum 486SX with 4 (or 8?) Megs of RAM. Native Windows would not run
dBASE for Windows 5. It came back with an error "not enough memory."
Windows under OS/2 would, however, run the program. Impressed me quite a
bit at the time.
