(5.2) Making OS/2 Resemble Windows

I prefer Windows.  How do I make OS/2 2.1 resemble Windows (or OS/2 1.3)?

Spend some time with the Workplace Shell first.  Browse the online 
Tutorial, Master Help Index, and Start Here facilties.  Consult the 
Unofficial Guide to the Workplace Shell, available from (3.2) Shareware 
and Freeware Sources.

If you still prefer Windows-like behavior, follow the instructions 
beginning on Page 401 in the OS/2 2.1 Using the Operating System manual.

Note that you can run the Win-OS/2 Program Manager "seamlessly" on your 
OS/2 desktop, and you can use it to launch DOS, Windows, and OS/2 
applications.  Using the Program Manager in this way can make even hard 
core Windows users more comfortable.
