==Awards== ''[[BYTE]]'' in 1989 listed OS/2 as among the "Excellence" winners of the BYTE Awards, stating that it "is today where the Macintosh was in 1984: It's a development platform in search of developers". The magazine predicted that "When it's complete and bug-free, when it can really use the 80386, and when more desktops sport OS/2-capable PCs, OS/2 will—deservedly—supersede DOS. But even as it stands, OS/2 is a milestone product".<ref name="byte198901">{{Cite magazine |date=January 1989 |title=The BYTE Awards |url=https://archive.org/stream/byte-magazine-1989-01/1989_01_BYTE_14-01_PC_Communications_and_Annual_Awards_and_Digitizing_Tablets#page/n371/mode/2up |magazine=BYTE |page=327}}</ref> In March 1995 OS/2 won seven awards<ref>{{cite web|url=http://public.dhe.ibm.com/rs6000/developer/library/dsnews/dsn5d.asc|title=IBM's Developer Support News 1995 Issue 4|website=Public.dhe.ibm.com|access-date=2021-10-11|archive-date=2022-04-08|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220408014532/http://public.dhe.ibm.com/rs6000/developer/library/dsnews/dsn5d.asc|url-status=dead}}</ref> * InfoWorld Product of the Year.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=uT4EAAAAMBAJ&q=InfoWorld+Product+of+the+Year+1995&pg=PA72|title=InfoWorld|date=25 March 1996|page=72|website=Books.google.com}}</ref> * Five Awards at CeBIT. ** PC Professional Magazine - Innovation of the Year award. ** CHIP Magazine named OS/2 Warp the Operating System of the Year. ** DOS International named OS/2 Warp the Operating System of the Year. ** 1+1 Magazine awarded it with the Software Marketing Quality award. ** Industrie Forum awarded it with its Design Excellence. * SPA Best Business Software Award.
