For me the decision is easy. The market signal prevails. It ould not be all that hard to integrate an IPv4 only system to my LAN, but I don't want to do that. And I certainly am not going to PAY for it. Wrong market signal indeed.

I ran OS/2 for a while. Warp II IIRC. it was a long time ago. I liked it. But I dumped it when I could not make it talk to Novell Personal Netware. I tried very hard, but just could not make it work. It was fixed in later versions, but then I had allready said goodbye. I am not one to go back. For me, Goodbye is goodbye.
Networking was not one of the strong points of OS/2 and ArcaOS seems to have inherited that weekness from IBM. The fact that they label IPv6 as mere "nice to have" says volumes.
