Publications from 1991/1992 talking about "Amiga OS":
I remember the term OS2 from the kick/workbench 2.0 release (1990). The OS was indeed usually referred as Workbench/Kichstart 2.0, but there was for example this OS2 ready (or compatible?) label (a black check with green(?) writing). It was necessary since the jump from 1.x to 2.x was rather massive. Also some literature referred to Amiga OS 2.0.
I also remember my own confusion with OS/2 and OS2.

Whenever you're sad just remember the world is 4.543 billion years old and you somehow managed to exist at the same time as David Bowie.
