Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Any Half Price Books near you?
I'd recommend eCS, but based on Playstation 2 discussions in the past I know $330 is not exactly in your budget.

I picked up a copy of Warp 3 at [link|http://www.halfpricebooks.com/|Half Price Books] a couple years ago for $10.

Also check ebay, I understand OS/2 shows up fairly often.

I'd also highly recommend you get [link|http://www.prismdataworks.com/warpup/|WarpUp!] as it'll contain all of the available "free" updates to OS/2 as well as a nice front-end to see what you have/haven't yet updated(there's seperate updates for drivers, TCP/IP statics, the base OS, etc).

Yes, 4.0 has the right drivers. 3.0 came out when there were lots of ways to hook up a CDROM. I had the driver problem with 3.0, my CDROM was hooked up via a sound card's proprietary connection. Luckily I had internet access at U of H and was able to easily get the updated drivers.

New Was that Warp 3 or Warp 3 connect?
I had Warp for a while, but the reason I couldn't get the camel's nose into the tent was that I would have needed Warp 3 Connect at the office. Oh well.

New Nope, none in Missouri
we must be too conservative here to get a half price books store?

I'll check the auction sites.

New No such luck
in my area most businesses want to get as much as they can for merchandice. There is a used book store, but no computer software.

This is Saint Louis Missouri, the UltraConservatives control most of the businesses here. Or at least in the area of the county I live in. They tried to build a Hooters out here and they refused to give them a liquior licence and refused to let them start building one, so they moved it to another location. Downtown Saint Louis the fast food joints just about refuse to have sales or charge $1 to $2 extra for the value meals. For $5 to $7 you can have lunch downtown, or maybe for $3 to $5 in some parts of the county that don't overcharge.

The last really really cheap place that sold software was "Crazy Dave's Computer Trends" but somehow Apple busted them for selling Franklin Aces or some sort of other nonsense. We also had Egghead which closed down, and Babbages but Babbages now sells only Console and PC Games, no OSes.
