FYI:

Most of ATM units in Spain run on OS/2 

Yes. Really. OS/2 is still alive (and well) on the Spanish Banking System. 

A few used to run WindowsCE or something similar... until Y2K, when they all 
crashed, even after getting all the possible patchs. Shortly after, they 
started to switch to something else. Not sure what. OS/2? *nix thing?

Marvelous OSs!


I will enjoy them next week, because I'm going to Barcelona next Monday.

Have a Happy Holidays! Bon Nadal!



Salut,
Josep
