EComStation

Background
eComStation or eCS is an operating system based on OS/2 Warp for the 32-bit x86 architecture. It was originally developed by Serenity Systems and Mensys BV under license from IBM. It includes additional applications, and support for new hardware which were not present in OS/2 Warp. It is intended to allow OS/2 applications to run on modern hardware, and is used by a number of large organizations for this purpose, financial difficulties at Mensys in 2012 led to the development of eComStation stalling, and ownership being transferred to a sister company named XEU.com (now known as PayGlobal Technologies BV), who continue to sell and support the operating system. The lack of a new release since 2011 was one of the motivations for the creation of the ArcaOS OS/2 distribution.

Logo: On a black background, we see a blue ball made out of arrow shapes (officially named the "E-ball"), underneath it is "eComStation", along with the version number next to it.

Variant: On 2.x releases, the logo is all in horizontal, the E-ball is to the left, while the OS' name is next to the E-ball, a big large 2 can also be seen behind the OS' name.

Technique: None

Audio: Same as the 5th OS/2 startup and shutdown sounds.

Availability: Only seen on computers running eComStation.
