1. eComStation is not compatible with IBM OS/2 Warp |
You can run legacy OS/2 Warp and DOS software in eComStation. This
compatibility has been proven as important as it protects customers
previous software investments.
|
|
2. eComStation is less stable than Warp Server for e-business (ACP2)
|
Not true, the first version of eComStation was based on OS/2 Warp.
(The base image of eCS 1.2 was 1:1 equal to Aurora Convenience Package 2,
ACP2 is expensive because includes IBM LAN server)
eComStation includes improved/fixed components of OS/2 + new technologies,
new drivers, applications and utilities.
|
|
3. eComStation is OS/2 + bells + files from Internet
|
All system components, all drivers are crossing in one point - installer.
It is updated often as the necessity arises (when new system component is added)
eComStation 2.0 what's new -
as you can see the infrastructure of the OS, the libraries of eComStation are updated.
Yes, you can download some components of eCS from Internet for free,
those files mainly are *on* the Internet because eComStation
paid for their development
(xwp, lucide, acpi, utilities, usb, snap, samba, .. some of them are free)
|
|
4. The developers of eComStation want kill OS/2
|
eComStation is developed by ex-OS/2 users and developers, not aliens.
The mission of every eComStation
developer is to create drivers and applications for users.
|
|
5. eComStation is expensive
|
eComStation includes bonus software which covers your expenses.
Upgrade of eComStation (software subscription) is very cheap.
|
|
6. There is no roadmap of future development
|
Current short roadmap: http://ecomstation.com
Forecast: http://ecomstation.ru/esway
|
|
7. I can survive without updates
|
You can't live without updates.
eComStation is changing every 3 months.
You need security updates, SMP-safe updates,
new applications, device drivers and tools.
