You can download OS/2 Perf from IBM NSC BBS if you have a subscription ($18/month) or from CompuServe. It's almost 20 disks though so I would advise against this strategy. It's available on CD-ROM from 1-800-251-2177. Call soon because the beta program is supposed to be stopping at the end of the month. If you don't have a CD-ROM, this is probably still the best way to go since it costs ~$15 and, as long as you can beg, borrow, or cheat a CD-ROM drive for an hour, you can make the disk images you need to install it onto your TP. > 2.

You can indeed install this version over an existing copy of Windows 3.1. I don't know about Windows 3.11. Windows for Workgroups 3.11 is not supported in the beta version although IBM claims it will be supported in the final version. I don't know about the uninstall cleanly (or at least simply).
