Well said Simon!

As for comparing it to OS/2, well...

One of the major hurdles OS/2 had to recover from was support for
Win3.1 applications. Supporting a Win3.1 run-time was a good idea
but it had the side effect of creating a lack of compelling
applications. Why? Because most vendors were too lazy to take
advantage of the OS/2 native environment and settled for writing a
Win3.1 application (for the WinDOS market) and then said they
supported OS/2 because that same application ran under OS/2 (albeit
in a Win3.1 run-time). Perhaps the astute among you can see parallels
between this and PASE.
