That is true, but my goal was to have two DOS terminals in which I could emulate two DOS networked machines sharing files, both running a client/server software I wrote, to emulate how they would work at a customer of mine shop. While it worked perfectly on OS/2, I encountered some stability problems on Windows 95, which also (if memory serves) required some more steps to allow DOS terminals to share their storage. By using OS/2 I could effectively replicate two machines in a single one and compile both client and server in a single take with 100% confidence that it would work once installed at the customer shop.
